1. Cozy, snuggly, soft
               Minky backing material with light and soft batting inside made from a bamboo and silk blend that                      keeps the quilt lighter and more snuggly than most other T-shirt quilts.  
2. Special stitching to accent the shirts
             
Each shirt has custom quilted stiches to truly accent each shirt design on both the                                                front and the back of the quilt.  This quilting helps to bring the memories to life, while helping to                        preserve them for  generations to come.

Quilt Styles 

*​Stacked, Assorted, or Sashed are the 3 most popular designs and depend mostly on the shirts and what will best feature them.  

Stacked
Best for large printed shirts, that are similar image size (as each stacked squares is 15 or 16 inches square).  Stacked is the most economical design, and also the most particular in shirt quantities as we have to even rows as outlined in the above chart. 

Assorted
Most popular layout that best features the shirts as each image is cut to the perfect size for that shirt.  Then it's placed into the quilt layout in an assorted style.  This is  great option if you have lots of shirts, or a large variety of graphic sizes and shapes.  The shirts truly decide the layout and each quilt comes to life.  You will get a picture of the proposed final layout to approve before the quit is sewn together and quilted.  

Sashed 

For those who like straight rows and a splash of color.  This is the stacked design with quality fabric sewn in rows around each square (we call those "sashing" in the quilt world). This is the most traditional T-shirt quilt design because in the olden days they didn't have the same materials to help stabilize the shirts like we do today.  Historically, the sashing is what added strength and stability to the shirts.  This is still a timeless design.

Style With Colors
Looking for something different to feature your top 15 shirts?  This design incorporates quality fabric (colors and designs that you can help select) with your 15 favorite shirts in the same size squares. Although the most expensive design, it adds a twist of traditional quilting methods to incorporate your favorite memories.
