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 don't use any 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.

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