Most are currently folded neatly and stacked in a pile no longer being used for their intended purpose.
When I was a runner, as new shirts were acquired, older shirts were rotated out. But I never had the heart to throw any of them away.
Ironically, I have kept my shirts all these years hoping to find a seamstress who will repurpose them into a quilt for me.
I no longer run races, but I want to hold on the those memories in some tangible way.
I'm hoping my race day T-shirt quilt will be a constant reminder.

My daughter also has t-shirts that she is wanting to make into a quilt! I am so glad this prompt inspired you this weekend!
