Graduation Quilts

May is always full of exciting events - like graduation! Two AccuQuilt team members celebrated graduations this month. Greg celebrated his daughter's high school career, and Tammy marked her daughter's graduation from high school with fun, family, and quilts, of course! A quilt is the perfect way to showcase years of memories, so both Greg and Tammy made t-shirt quilts for their graduating seniors.

Greg used the Bullseye Nested Dies for Studio to cut these giant hexies from his daughter's t-shirts. The hexagon Bullseye dies offer seven different hexagon sizes ranging from 1" sides to 7" sides. The larger hexies frame most t-shirt graphics perfectly! Check out the pattern here.

Tammy cut her daughter's t-shirts into squares and sashed them in black to showcase all her sports memories. Sashing is easy to add to any quilt when you use the GO! Strip Dies.
