Murray’s Memories

Murray started his shirt collection 60 years ago during his studies at MIT, with shirts won from “shirt races” (where the rowers in the losing boat gave their shirts to the rowers in the winning boat). Additional shirts were added to his collection, during his coaching years.

He had always indicated that someday, he might like to have the shirts made into a quilt. His family contacted me prior to a milestone birthday and asked if I’d be able to make his shirts into a wall hanging. When I agreed, his wife sneaked his shirt collection out of the house and brought them to me. This is the result.
