Here's how it works
We take quilts a month. Here's everything that happens between booking and delivery.
Book your month & choose your design
Fill out the booking form. Choose your quilt size, about how many shirts you'll send, a layout style, and colors for the sashing (the fabric strips between shirts), border, backing and binding. Pick an open month, or join the waitlist for a full one.
We'll reply within 2 business days to confirm the details. A deposit reserves your spot and comes off your final price.
Ship your t-shirts
Once your spot is confirmed, we'll email you the mailing address and a packing checklist. Please:
- Wash the shirts first. No fabric softener needed.
- Pin a note to any shirt you want in a certain spot, like the center or a corner.
- Mark if you want both the front and back of a shirt used.
- Send your box with tracking. We'll email you when it arrives.
We make your quilt
The 4–6 week timeline starts the day your box arrives. Each shirt is cut and backed with interfacing so it won't stretch. Then we lay out the blocks and send you a photo of the layout to approve before anything is sewn. After that, the quilt is pieced, quilted and bound by hand.
Your quilt ships home
Your finished quilt ships with insured tracking. If it's a gift, we can ship it straight to the recipient in a gift box with a handwritten card.
Frequently asked questions
How many shirts do I need?
A lap/throw uses 12–16 shirts, a twin 20–24, a full/queen 30–36, and a king 42–49. Each shirt front or back counts as one block. If you have extras, we can add more blocks for a small fee or send the leftovers back.
Can I use things that aren't t-shirts?
Usually, yes. Sweatshirts, jerseys, polos, baby onesies, button-downs and even bandanas can be used. Very stretchy, sheer or sequined fabrics are harder to work with, so please ask first on the contact page.
What if my month is full?
Join the waitlist on the booking form. If a spot opens up, we'll email waitlisted customers in the order they signed up. Otherwise you'll get the next open month.
Do I need to ship my shirts right away?
No. Ship them so they arrive near the start of your booked month. We'll send a reminder.
What's the difference between grid and collage layouts?
A grid has every shirt cut to the same size block, separated by fabric strips (sashing). A collage mixes block sizes so each logo can be cut as big as it needs to be. It takes more design time, so it costs a little more.
Can I have it by a certain date?
Tell us your need-by date on the booking form, such as graduation, a birthday or a holiday. We'll let you know honestly whether your booked month can make it.
Will I get my leftover shirt pieces back?
If you'd like them, yes. Just check the box on the booking form.
How do I wash my quilt?
Machine wash cold on gentle and tumble dry low, or line dry. Every quilt comes with a care card.
