Do you actually quilt?

We take a perfect square from each of your shirts, using the BEST parts of the shirts, and sew them together on the front of the t-shirt quilt. Then we back the quilt with high-quality fleece (your choice of colors!). We do not quilt your t-shirts, which is a much more labor-intensive process. There are many great t-shirt quilt companies out there, but we heard from people that they wanted to preserve their t-shirt memories and get a great product without paying 500 to 700 dollars for it! We realize you may be thinking: How can you make a product that is top quality yet so much more affordable? Well, the way we construct the t-shirt quilt (sewing all of the shirts together and then attaching the fleece on the back) takes a lot less time to make, and we pass the savings on to you.

What's unique about our process?

  • We spend a lot of time carefully cutting the most important parts, and laying out the t-shirts to make the finished design look great!
  • We do not  use any quilting batting or interfacing. You may ask:  "Why? That's what my quilting friend says you NEED to do." The problem with that is the t-shirts may look really stiff at first, but with the wash, the interfacing gets destroyed. Our blankets are meant to be used and washed!
  • The fleece is sewn around the outside and attached to the t-shirts. You can technically pull the two sides apart, but only if you REALLY wanted to. They lie flat and stay together VERY well, even after many many washes.. 
  • We do not sew custom patches on quilts, or small pieces from sleeves

Please let us know if you have any questions--- we are always happy to talk t-shirt quilts.
