T-SHIRT
QUILTS
Each t-shirt quilt we make is as unique as you! Every quilt is individually designed based on your t-shirts.
​
When we receive your shirts, we will take a picture of each side of the shirt that will be used in your quilt. We will send you a digital image of the quilt plan, providing the size and price, for your approval. You'll have a chance to make changes to make the perfect quilt for you to wrap up in your memories!
HOW MANY T-SHIRTS ARE NEEDED?
​
HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?
​
That all depends! What size quilt do you want? We've put together this table to give you a general idea - but remember, the size of your quilt could be much smaller or bigger based on the designs on your shirts.
The cost of your quilt is based on the quilt size, which will be provided when we send you a digital image for your approval. We can add solid or block borders if you have a limited number of shirts and want to make your quilt larger.
And don't worry - we will give you a chance to add or subtract shirts, or re-arrange the quilt plan, before we start cutting!
Quilts come in all sizes, and there is no "right" size. If you will use your quilt on a bed - make sure to measure it, including how far it will drape over the sides, to ensure your quilt size will be perfect!
MATERIALS & CARE INSTRUCTIONS
In addition to your t-shirts, we utilize high quality materials to create your quilt. The batting is Hobbs Heirloom Premium 80/20 cotton/polyester. We back your quilt with super soft minky fabric, which is 100% polyester. A 100% cotton backing can be used if preferred. Your quilt is bound with 100% cotton fabric. Quilts can be machine washed in cold water, and tumble dried on a low setting.
QUILTING PATTERNS
The edge to edge longarm patterns shown are our most popular for t-shirt quilts due to their simplicity and open design. There are literally thousands of patterns to choose from - if there is something specific you are looking for, just let us know!
BACKING COLORS
We use Shannon Fabrics Solid Cuddle 3 in Charcoal (gray) as the standard minky backing for our t-shirt quilts. The Charcoal color blends perfectly with most quilts, and holds up well to regular use. In stock minky colors are listed on the order form. Additional colors may be chosen; however, that may increase production time.
BINDING COLORS
The binding is the strip of fabric around the outside edge of your quilt, and can be seen from both the front and back. We use Kona Solids fabric collection - and there are over 300 colors to choose from. Graphite matches the Charcoal minky standard backing color - or let us know if you'd like a color to coordinate with a specific shirt in your quilt.
