All of our Shirt Quilts are quilted adjacent to the shirt seams, we use white thread to keep your shirts the center of attention.
HOW TO ORDER
1-Go through and select your Quilt backing color. We use a super soft minky fleece for the backing. This will wrap around and be used for the edge binding so this color will be visible on the front.
2- Most Shirts should be just fine with a 12"x12" size square, but if you have a larger T Shirts check the graphics size. Select the 14"x14" to avoid cutting off part of the print.
After you purchase your T-Shirt Quilt you will get a “kit” sent your Etsy message center/or email. This kit will include:
1- A set of numbered labels for each panel of your quilt. Tape or Pin these labels on your shirts to design your quilt layout. You can use the front, back or both sides of your shirt. The kit will also include a Quilt Map to correspond with the labels and the mailing address to send in your shirts.
** You will be responsible for paying postage and sending in the shirts for your quilts.
Just load up your shirts as described in the kit and send in via the carrier of your choice.
We will do all the cutting for you! No need to cut any of your shirts.
We don't send back your shirt material unless requested.
Check our Shop Heading for Current Lead Times. Quality takes time but its so worth it!

But please contact me if you have any problems with your order.
Batting is a layer of fill added between the top T-Shirt portion of the Quilt and the Back Minky Fleece. The Batting dosn't add much weight to the quilt but does make it fuller. I like to describe the T-Shirt Quilts with Batting as more like a comforter and with-out Batting Quilts are more like a Throw blanket.
No- We do not return the scrap material, but if you would like it returned just let us know, we would be happy to return if requested!
Once you place an order you will receive a message with your "Quilt kit". This will include the shipping address. The cost on Etsy does not include the cost to send in your shirts. You will be responsible for the cost to send in your shirts. USPS does over flat rate shipping boxes that may save some money on shipping.
You do not need to pre cut any of your T-Shirts. We will cut all the shirts that are needed for the quilt. If you have shirts that have already been cut we can work with those too. We do not offer a discount for precut shirts as it typically take longer to cut any remaining as they don't usually match our templates.
Yep, we can work with most materials. T-Shirts, sweatshirts, Jerseys etc. If you have a question on a specific material just let us know.
No we do not use interfacing. We find that it makes the quilt less soft and overtime does not hold up as well. We like to make super soft quilts that will remain super comfy over time.
Yes, if you have a large order you would like to place contact us for pricing. Our quilts have made great corporate gifts!

I definitely would recommend Shirts2Quilts. After a lot of research on various companies and Etsy sellers that provide these, I chose Shirts2Quilts and I am so glad I did. Sending/organizing the shirts was super easy and Emily was great at communicating through the entire process. The craftsmanship was excellent, even on shirts that had buttons, etc. included. I love the minky backing. All 3 quilts I ordered turned out wonderfully- she was even able to incorporate pieces of an old blanket that I had saved. Thank you so much for allowing me to save my old shirts in such a useful and well-crafted way!

I can’t recommend this company enough. They did an outstanding job with my Grandson’s quilt.

My T-shirt blanket came out better than I could have ever imagined! Emily was great to work with and answered all my question prior to ordering, the processing and completion. All the stitching was done to perfection and the backing fabric is so soft and cozy! I am beyond happy with the craftsmanship and attention to detail. (This was a project I had planned to do with my mom but sadly she passed away before we could complete it). This blanket is extra special to me and will be loved for years to come.
