Coach's T-Shirt Quilt

picking colors

What do you do for a Coach at the end of the season? Many times, a team will do something for a coach so that the team and season is remembered. I'm sure coaches have many stuffed animals, plaques, photos and nick nacks galore.
Brenna thought a t-shirt quilt would be fun for her Millikin Volleyball coach. The girls had a great season, winning their conference with a 7-0 record. The team also broke some school records, beat a team that had not lost a conference game in many years, and just had fun! With not much time, Brenna asked the girls to donate a t-shirt from the past four years. She also raided the team closet for a few more and the clock started ticking! Without knowing when the End of Season event would be, and hoping it would be after the first of the year, I started shopping,cutting, planning, and sewing. I found some blue and white fabrics and got busy. I used one of the templates I cut for the Too Cool T-Shirt Quilt, so happy I didn't have to do THAT again! The end result was a quilt Coach Kiick could take on a cold bus or cuddle up with at home.

Finished! Waiting for the girls to sign it.

Brenna finished it with all of the girls signing the quilt and presenting it to Coach Kiick at the end of the party.




I'm sure Coach will remember this team for a long time!
