DIY t-shirt quilt top: This post is a tutorial and guide that I hope will be helpful to you on how to make a quilt out of t-shirts

More than two years ago, I made my very first memory quilt from the clothing of a loving father. The daughter gifted it to her mother and I understand it has been displayed on her mother's bed every day since then. Late last year she asked me if I would take the scraps from that project and make five small quilts so that each of her siblings could also have a memory quilt to remember their father by. That is the primary project I have been working on in 2017. She wanted to gift them for Father's Day this year and I will be delivering them to her this week. I wanted to make these versatile so that they could be used as a pillow, a table topper, or a wall quilt. Each one has an envelope backing so that a pillow form can be easily inserted. Here it is as a table topper. Each small quilt is 23" to 24" square. The backings are made from clothing as well. They are just as unique as the quilt fronts. It was a sunny and breezy day when I was taking photos. There were very few big pieces left by the time these backs were made. The center one uses a shirt that was a bit too thick for patchwork but made a great pillow back. The pillow form fits in that one by unbuttoning the shirt front. Here is a closer look at each of the quilt fronts. I was constantly reminding myself that the focus of these quilts is the clothing. Not the patchwork. Not the quilting. There were a couple of tops I made and set aside because the clothing was not the focus. While I love them all, this simple square in a square is one of my favorites, mostly because in the beginning, I thought it would be boring. It is anything but boring. You can't see it in the picture, but this is the most heavily quilted of the set. I was so nervous with this one because about half way through, I thought it was going to be overdone, but once it was finished, it turned out to be the one with the most old fashioned feel to it. Most of the clothing fabric is shirts. Some is pajamas, and some, like this solid red, is from boxer shorts. In this case, red Santa boxer shorts. It's the perfect accent fabric and I just love the fun behind the history of it. I wanted each one of these quilts to be special. There was one point when I was struggling to come up with patchwork designs for them. This was a last minute addition to replace one that I was feeling ho hum about. When these were in the completed top stage with no quilting on them, this was my favorite. What I like most about this quilt, is that every piece of fabric is from clothing. All of the others have a Moda Bella solid for the background. There weren't enough really light clothing items to do that throughout, but I'm happy that this one is all clothing. This is the only one where part of the quilting is in a darker thread. There is a flower quilted in the center of the larger squares in a dark blue thread, and that same thread is used to stitch lines diagonally through the darker fabrics. There is also a layout mistake with the patchwork on this one. I did not see it until it was far too late to correct, and I think it adds an element of quirkiness. Can you find it? I am really excited to finish and deliver these small quilts. Making memories is a very special part of quilt making for which I am thankful to be a part.

CREATED WITH LOVE PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR CURRENT TURN AROUND TIMES! *****************THIS LISTING IS FOR A NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT ONLY***************** SEE BELOW FOR SIZES AND PRICING This is a quilt I made for a customer after her college graduation. It included tee shirts from elementary school, soccer team, cheerleading, favorite bands, concerts, movies, vacations, college, ending with her first job. I will make one just for you! Each shirt is custom cut to fit the graphics. It is heavily quilted. I let the design guide me when quilting. Backing is; cotton/flannel for the cuddle factor. Each quilt will be custom designed with the colors of your choice. We could use school colors, team colors, neutral black, or the recipients favorite color. I back with flannel in the hopes that this quilt will be used and treasured for years. You will get top quality cottons, batting and backing. Don't overlook sweatshirts, boxer shorts or any garment that you treasure. When comparing my designs to other quilts please note that all my tee shirts are custom cut, they are all different sizes, cut to include the entire graphic, then fit together to be aesthetically pleasing. This takes much more time than it would to make all tee's the same size. My quilts are entirely quilted, which is also more time consuming.
