Frequently Asked Questions
What is a T-shirt quilt?
Surprise, surprise…it is a quilt made from T-shirts! The printed section of each shirt is cut away and sewn with other shirts and additional fabric to create a quilt.
How many shirts go into a quilt?
The short answer is: as many as you want! There is a minimum requirement of 4 shirts. Keep in mind, T-shirt quilts often look best with the shirts aligned in a grid pattern, so multiples work best (for instance, 24 shirts in a 4×6 layout).
What is the cost of a T-shirt quilt?
Please see our Pricing page for more information.
How do I prepare my shirts to become a T-shirt quilt?
Please have all shirts laundered and bagged together.
How much of the T-shirt is used for the quilt?
A 12.5-inch square is cut around the central image of each T-shirt, resulting in a 12-inch finished square in the final quilt.
What happens to the shirt scraps that aren’t used?
They are discarded unless otherwise requested.
