The number of T-shirts you’ll need for your quilt depends on the size of your quilt and your T-shirts’ graphics.
Since every T-shirt is different, we can’t provide an exact number until we see them. Large designs or T-shirts with graphics on both sides mean you’ll need fewer T-shirts, while small logos or one-sided designs require more.
Our general estimates are a great starting point. Think of your T-shirts as a whole, not as separate fronts and backs. If your T-shirts have large designs, stick to the low end of the range. If they have smaller designs aim for the high end.
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.
You need to know what you want your T-shirt quilt to look and feel like before you send your T-shirts to anyone.
One of the most common phrases we hear in the shop is, "Oh, they are going to love it!" That excitement is what drives us to put so much care into every quilt we make.
We truly love making T-shirt quilts, but like anyone, we also need to earn a living. Behind every quilt is a team of hardworking people with families to support. Your trust in our work allows us to keep doing what we’re passionate about.
