quilting one T-shirt at a time!

Making a T-shirt quilt is a wonderful way to preserve and enjoy memories of special times in our lives. But actually making a T-shirt quilt can feel like an overwhelming project. T-Shirt Quilts ... One Block at a Time!  changes that!

Imagine this: You quilt T-shirts one at a time, right on your domestic machine. After they're quilted, you cut them to size and assemble the quilt section by section. It's much more manageable than a whole quilt top and you can do it yourself on yuor home sewing machine!

The key to the T-Shirt Quilts ... One Block at a Time! technique is using double-sided fusible batting.  Be sure to order it when you order your book so you'll have it on hand when the book arrives! (Because of the size of batting, I'm unable to stock it, but click here to order from Hancock's of Paducah.)

The T-Shirt Quilts ... One Block at a Time! approach allows for so much creativity—quilting can outline lettering, enhance a logo, even tell a story. It's easy to add applique and other embellishment if you wish.

And you don’t have to plan the quilt ahead. Just jump in and start quilting shirts. Enjoy seeing the quilt grow as you put one after another creatively quilted shirt up on your wall. You can even make smaller projects like pillows or bed runners to enjoy now, and add them to a bigger quilt later on.
