What is a T-Shirt Quilt?
A T-shirt quilt is a blanket made out of old T-shirts that holds sentimental value. By cutting the shirts into squares and sewing them together, you can create a cozy and personalized quilt that tells the story of your college experience.
How to Make a T-Shirt Quilt
Follow this link for instructions / directions, and how to prepare your shirts.
You will get these instructions in your order confirmation email. This video also shows you should prep your shirts. Please do not cut shirts before watching the video. You have to order each quilt separately, you can not order multiple in one order. You do no pre-cut tshirts into squares. Follow video guide.
If you follow the instructions, you will get exactly what you want. If there are shirts that are smaller than our 13x13 machines, we can use them, but will cost $9 per shirt for us to do custom work on. We can use a mix of a lot of different kinds of material. Sweaters, leotards, and jeans do not work.
Benefits of a T-Shirt Quilt
Not only does a T-shirt quilt provide a practical use as a blanket, but it also serves as a visual reminder of your time at the College of William & Mary. Each shirt holds memories of events, clubs, and friends, making the quilt a unique and personal keepsake.
Additionally, T-shirt quilts are environmentally friendly, as they repurpose old shirts that may otherwise end up in a landfill. By creating a quilt, you are giving new life to your old shirts and reducing waste.
