How many t shirts do I need for a quilt?
9 sides for a Mini throw
12 sides for a Bed Runner
16 sides for a Lap Size T Shirt Quilt
24 Sides for a Twin Size T Shirt Quilt
30 sides for a Full size T Shirt Quilt
36 sides for a Large Throw T Shirt Quilt
42 Sides for a Queen Size T Shirt Quilt
What is a SIDE of a t-shirt? It's either the front OR the backside of the t-shirt.
We only need the designated number of sides of shirts (front or back), not full t-shirts. For example, a Full size blanket can be made with 15 full t-shirts using the fronts and backs, or 30 shirts just using one side or any combination in between. DO NOT SEND EXTRA SHIRTS.
Please see our instructions page for how you should prep your shirts. Do NOT send extra shirts. If you get a bigger size panel, we still require the same amount of shirts.
