I've had this project on the back burner for years and finally finished it! I used 11 of my dad's old neckties to make an apron (9 ties will work just as well). If this is something you would like me to create for you, message me! You provide the ties--$60 plus shipping.

A T-shirt quilt is a giant, cuddly scrapbook page of memories! But it's even better than that because it's a useful item made from things you no longer wear.

When I custom design a quilt, I let the graphics tell their story. Every quilt is unique. Do you have a stack of T-shirts with a story to tell?

*The average T-shirt quilt includes about a dozen shirts.
*The finished size of the quilt will depend on the number and sizes of your T-shirts and graphics. (I do not make bed sizes.)
*Every quilt is unique and designed specifically for YOUR shirt collection.
*A T-shirt quilt usually takes about 5 full days of work (40 hours) from start to finish.
* You can choose a cozy fleece backing or you can provide a favorite flat bed sheet in good condition--does your mom still have your childhood sheets somewhere?
*Pricing is based on the number of shirts used, currently $25/shirt with a minimum of 12 shirts. The quilt in this video is my daughter's and it used 13 shirts. My older child's collection was enough to make two quilts with 25 shirts total.
*I use graphics on fronts, backs, and any logos from the same shirt with no upcharge.
*I can also make a beautiful keepsake quilt from men's button front shirts (see my cover photo).
*All of my quilts are machine washable on a gentle cycle, dry low.
*Sorry, no dri-fit, slippery, or shiny fabrics.
*Because T-shirts and quilts are heavy, I don't recommend shipping at this time. I'm in southern MN and regularly visit the Twin Cities metro area.
*Message me with any questions!
