At Too Cool T-shirt Quilts, we pride ourselves on creating quilts that are as unique and personal as the memories they capture. Both our regular style and stained-glass style T-shirt quilts share common features that make them stand out, yet each has distinctive characteristics that cater to different tastes and styles. Let’s explore these similarities and differences in detail.
Whether you choose our regular style or stained-glass style, both types of T-shirt quilts feature captivating designs. By using different sizes and shapes of blocks, we create dynamic and visually interesting layouts that are far from ordinary. Each quilt tells its own story, capturing the essence of the T-shirts used.
The first quilt here is not a stained-glass quilt. It is a regular style quilt with a 4" pieced border. The second quilt is a stained-glass style. It too has a 4" pieced border.
Our commitment to quality means that every Too Cool T-shirt Quilt is designed to last. We use high-quality materials and craftsmanship to ensure that your quilt stands the test of time, becoming an heirloom that can be cherished by future generations.
While both styles share the same high standards of design, quilting, and quality, the stained-glass style T-shirt quilt offers a unique twist.
This fabric, which we will refer to as “leading,” provides a striking contrast that sets off the colorful blocks. It's much like the lead in traditional stained-glass art that highlights the vibrancy of the glass pieces.
This design choice amplifies the colors and patterns of the T-shirts, resulting in a quilt that is both eye-catching and unique.
Note, the leading can be any color you would like. It doesn't have to be black.
Choosing a stained-glass style T-shirt quilt is like bringing a piece of contemporary art into your home. The interplay of the leading with the colorful T-shirt blocks creates a sophisticated, artistic look that can complement a wide range of interior styles.

This is a stained-glass style quilt because of the thin black leading between the blocks.
This is one of our regular style T-shirt quilt. There is no thin strip of fabric between blocks. This quilt has a 2" solid + 4" pieced border. The pieced border is in rainbow or ombre color style.
Both our regular style and stained-glass style T-shirt quilts offer captivating designs, distinctive quilting, and heirloom quality. The choice between them comes down to personal preference. If you love the dynamic, freeform layout of different sized blocks, either style will delight you.
However, if you are drawn to the striking contrast and bold visual statements reminiscent of stained-glass windows, our stained-glass style T-shirt quilt is the perfect choice. No matter which style you choose, a Too Cool T-shirt Quilt is a beautiful and lasting way to preserve your memories.
