We offer two styles of t-shirt quilts - traditional and variable.

• Traditional t-shirt quilt

Traditional t-shirt quilt means that the shirts are all cut the same size. The shirts are placed in a grid pattern, and have sashing between the blocks. The quilt is then machine quilted. The price is determined by the number of t-shirts. The pricing is based on a 14" square t-shirt block with 1 1/2" sashing and 2" borders.

•Variable t-shirt quilt

A Variable t-shirt quilt is made by varying the size of the squares made from the shirts. A variable style is good if you have shirts of various sizes - this style allows you to incorporate various size shirt blocks, smaller logos, such as pocket designs and smaller squares. If you have t-shirts that are already cut, a variable style t-shirt quilt is also a good choice. Variation in the size of the blocks makes the quilt more interesting. The pricing is based on a 14" wide shirt block. These quilts also have 1 1/2" sashing in between the blocks and 2" borders.

Quilt construction details

All quilts are made of a front panel made from your shirts with a fabric sashing accent. All shirt panels will have a high quality stabilizer applied to enhance appearance and durability while maintaining a comfortable softness. The back side of the quilt, is a "reads solid" color panel bound at the edges with an accenting color, binding/edging strip. A standard weight batting is used between the front and rear panels. All layers are securely bound together by the quilt stitching over the entire quilt. This quilting method results in a very attractive texture and provides exceptional stability.
