This baby quilt is made from one pink and one white men's oxford shirt (purchased from the thrift store (of course) for about a buck each.) I included a pocket on one of the squares for a binky or baby toy. It turned out cute.
Years ago in a quilt magazine I read an article about Nuns recycling mens shirts into quilts. Stripes & plaids..they were ..different. Yours is beautiful, love the pocket

I love your quilt! I wondered what an Oxford Quilt was. Very clever!
