    this is a genius idea! you use your old shirts that have been super worn and sew them into a quilt? do you have like a living quilt and keep adding shirts? or wait until you have a good collection of shirts and put them into one quilt?

    We have a t-shirt quilt that we sewed up when we had a bag full of shirts that were going to the goodwill otherwise. We just pulled out enough of our favorite designs to make a quilt. It's a fantastic camping/concert blanket cause you don't have to worry about getting it dirty or anything like that.

    More of a drawer won’t close cuz too many race t-s added prompts me to cull the herd approach. Two quilts made and a bag waiting in the bullpen currently. Prob do a third next year.

    Similar. One stays in the trailer for camping nights and other sees lots of nights on the sofa.

    My wife has made a number of these types of quilts, and our favorites are of our kiddos old soccer and baseball jerseys from the years. Love seeing the ride shirts done this way too!

    For sure, each of my girls have their own quilt with the same and there’s a couple coaches T-shirts sewn into mine. Great way to preserve memories and not turn the shirts into shop rags.

    Awesome work. I've got a closet packed with candidates for that. Plus I'm no longer a size Medium, so I'm only looking at them anyway for the memories.

    I think your shirt is from the 1st year or early on.

    Didn’t realize Fezzari had a kids bike. This is very enticing.

    My 7 y/o is due for a new ride. At 52.5” tall she has long outgrown her current 16” Trek Precaliber. Poor gal looks like a clown on a toy bike even with the seatpost set higher than the ‘max extension’ line…

    Not a bad spec either. SRAM SX 1x12, hydraulic brakes, tubeless ready wheels and tires, air fork.

    Looks like YT has some killer deals right now too.

    I was eyeing up a Capra uncaged 11 earlier, which is currently on sale for $4,400. Ohlins suspension, gx transmission, carbon wheels...

    Rode my buddies this last weekend and liked it, not quite as much as my fire chicken, though. :D

    I’ll be tuning in on the release myself. An updated TransAm would be so sick.
