Sewing your own dress shirt not only makes you green but it is also easy and inexpensive.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/inchmark.squarespace.com\/about-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brooke<\/a>, though an amateur sewer, designed the quilt for her son by using her husband\u2019s old shirts. The collar and sleeves wear out much faster and she saved the remaining <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fabric.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fabric<\/a> to make the quilt. She tried to embellish the quilt by including pockets and plackets too. Spare scraps of the shirt fabric were pieced together to make the quilt binding.<\/p>\n<p>To make your quilt last longer take proper care by proper washing, displaying and storing quilts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you want to make a quilt out of your old dress shirt look at the images below.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"dress shirt pieces\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greendiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/dress-shirt-pieces_AwBh6_22978.jpg\" alt=\"dress shirt pieces\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"dress picece shirt 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greendiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/dress-picece-shirt-2_HNa1D_22978.jpg\" alt=\"dress picece shirt 2\" \/><\/p><div class=\"38520354a5201685ddf480eec688e1a7\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none;
