English (US) Custom T-Shirt Quilts, Est. 2012 FAQs Go to category... How everything works Most Popular Questions Different style of quilt options Upgrades Available Shipping Questions How everything works Construction 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. BUY NOW! Custom Panels On occasion, a graphic on a particular shirt may be much larger than the square we are trying to cut from it. In some cases, we may create a custom panel size to better accommodate the graphic on the shirt. Below are a few examples of how this custom panel may look on a completed quilt: If you need to make changes to your order Where are you located? We are in western North Carolina.

The gift cards and e-cards are sold and bought per size (not as a monetary value) and can only be redeemed for the size listed on the gift card or e-card. Example: If you bought a Queen size gift card or e-card, it is meant to be redeemed for a Queen size quilt. It cannot be used to buy one Twin size and one Full size.

If no area is marked, we cannot guarantee the name/sponsor to be included. Alterations & Repairs Tank Tops Sometimes tank tops need a little extra work so we can grab the best part of the shirt and center the image on the finished panel. It costs $8.99 per piece extra and you will be invoiced after we receive and review these items at production. V neck shirts & cheer tops Frequently V necks and cheer tops may require some custom work ($8.99 extra per panel) to meet the size requirement, and make them fit uniformly in the quilt. This quilt had fabric added to several of the V necks - and the finished product turned out great! Too Small Shirts When shirts arrive that are too small to fill the ordered panel size, we add fabric to the shirt to ensure it fits uniformly with the other panels on the quilt. Below are some examples of how our team makes these alterations. It is $8.99 per shirt that is too small. How many shirts do I need for each size? For a King Size we need 64 sides.
