A well-made T-shirt quilt is expensive. If someone tells you they can make one for a lot less, be wary. They probably aren't making the same type and style of T-shirt quilt we are.
Here are 4 factors to compare.
A blanket costs a fraction the price of a quilt — because they aren't the same thing! We only make quilts.
Many quilt makers will crop off logos to fit a single standard block size. It saves them money and will break your heart.
Uninteresting and cheap to make. This is very different to our puzzle style.
Itchy and won't stand the test of time. We use the highest quality materials.
Typically 4 to 6 weeks.
Thought, it will depend on the time of year. Around Christmas and during high school graduation season, it may be closer to 6 to 8 weeks. In January and in August it could be closer to 3 weeks. If it will be longer than 6 weeks, we will let you know.
If you have a specific date that you need to have your quilt returned by, please indicate this on your order form so we can plan accordingly.
Note: The turn around time clock begins upon your approval of the size of your quilt. We try to email you size and border options within 2-4 days of receiving your box. We do not start counting time until we hear back from you approving your quilts size. The time does not begin when you ship out your T-shirts. Please note this in your time frame.
A spectacular Jersey quilt made from your Jerseys. All the blocks will be different sizes and it will be puzzled together.
All Too Cool T-shirt Quilts come with a binding.
The binding is the material that goes around the outside of the quilt. About ¼" of the binding is seen from the top, the side and the back of a quilt. The binding is used to hide the raw edges of the quilt top, batting and backing materials.
The quilting designs on the back of a Too Cool T-shirt quilt are not only fun, they are one of the things that set a Too Cool T-shirt quilt apart from other T-shirt quilts.
Return shipping is included in the price of a quilt. There are two exceptions...
Jerseys tend to have larger and more graphics than typical T-shirts. This means that you will need few jerseys than this chart shows.
It also is going to depend on if you choose to use the front, back, and sleeves from your jerseys.
If you are concerned about your quilt getting too large, consider sending two bags of jerseys. A first and second string. We will cut the first bag and calculate the size of your quilt. If we still need more, we will work from the top down from your second string bag.
Here's is what we tell people looking for a T-shirt quilt about how many T-shirts are needed.
It’s hard to say! It all depends on your specific T-shirts. The list here is only an approximation of the number of T-shirts, sweatshirts or other clothing items it may take to make a quilt of that size.
You may need more T-shirts if the designs on your T-shirts are small. Or you may need fewer if the designs on your T-shirts are big. Count each T-shirt you have as one, whether it has a design just on the front or a design on the front and back. The more T-shirts you have with fronts and backs means you will need to be on the lower end on the approximate number needed. If you have T-shirts with small designs on just one side, you will need more T-shirts.
Generally, we take the T-shirts you send us and cut them. Then we determine what size quilt those T-shirts could make. We will e-mail you and tell you the dimensions of the quilt that these T-shirts can make. At this time you can accept the dimensions of the quilt or you can add or remove T-shirts so the quilt is the size you would like.
Backing colors - we have over 350 colors to choose from.
If you want something beyond a standard generally accepted colors, please send a swatch. For example navy, hunter green, red, orange, etc. are colors that are what they are.
But a color like teal or sage - there is more than one interpretation to these colors. So if you would send a swatch of color that would be helpful. You can get a swatch from a paint chip, from one of your T-shirts, a color crayon scribble on a piece of white paper or out of a magazine (circle the color).
A jersey is a distinctive shirt worn by a player or competitor in certain sports.
This is a wide definition that covers many different types of jerseys. We can use all the different types, from bike jerseys to football and everything in between.
Choosing which T-shirts to include in your quilt is a very important first step.
