Yearbook Shirt - Men's Large
This shirt is my most prized possession. After going back and forth on whether to keep it or sell it, I've decided to share it with someone else.
I had the fun idea of cutting 70 squares from my leftover scraps that I kept because I was so attached to them and I loved either the words or artwork on these pieces. Originally, I had planned to just do the front left side of the shirt in the quilt, but after asking my husband, he suggested I do the whole thing. So I did. There's that. They are all from the 1930s-1950s.
24 total hours of work were put into this garment. The interior of the shirt (where the seam allowance of the quilt pieced squares are) is unfinished. If I had clean finished them all, this would have been 48 hours of work. I don't think I'll ever make another.
Please note that these are vintage textiles some over 70 years old. Please treat them with extreme care. There may be slight discoloration or imperfections on the vintage textiles that have been treated and repaired to the best of our ability.
1/2 Chest pit-to-pit: 25”
Across back shoulder: 21”
Length from HPS: 27 1/2”
Shoulder: 7 1/4”
Sleeve Length: 9”
