I can’t wait to bring the pillows to my sister in a few weeks. --Denise

It arrived over the weekend and I love it. For some reason it did not occur to me what would be on the back side. Your solution is fantastic! It now has an honored place on the coach in the “man-cave” TV room where I watch lots of games. Thank you so much and don’t hesitate to use me as a reference. - Robert

To order a T-Shirt Quilt or for info on pricing, email me at kate@quiltsbykate.net.

Each square usually measures approximately 12".

Children's T-Shirts will differ.

Small, Medium, Large, Extra-large, XXL and XXXL are all acceptable.

You provide the T-Shirts, I provide the fleece and finished product. All quilts by kate are made by hand!

I use 100% cotton thread and a backstitch in the composition of the quilt itself, and special quilting thread for the detailed work.

Each T-Shirt Quilt takes between three-four weeks from start to finish. Quilts needed in less than four weeks are subject to a "Rush" fee.

Please note: Once the T-Shirts have been assembled into a quilt, they will no longer be usable as T-Shirts.
