Up next is Reilly Ell. Reilly chose to make a t-shirt quilt as well because he had many shirts that had meaning to him, but they didn't fit him anymore. He chose the tiger fabric because of the Groton tigers, rawwrrr! The stitching Reilly chose for the quiltiting features a sports pattern. It is said that his quilt was sent from the Heavens, but Reilly denies this as he said he made it himself. He plans to use his quilt next year at SDSU for a shade over the window to block out the light when he is sleeping. Reilly also might use his quilt as a toasty cover when it gets really cold. Reilly is very artistic and is so proud of his task. Super-duper job, Reilly!

Here comes Olivia Lone with her t-shirt quilt. Her quilt includes lots of t-shirts that she has collected over the years from family events and school activities. She is proud of the way it turned out, and she plans to take it with her in the fall to SDSU. Excellent job, Olivia!
