Our Most Popular & Timeless Keepsake Quilt
The Block Style T-Shirt Quilt is our most popular and straightforward quilt option. This classic design features uniform t-shirt blocks sewn directly together, creating a clean, traditional layout that highlights your favorite shirts, logos, and memories.
This style is ideal for graduations, memorial quilts, sports shirts, milestones, and everyday keepsake blankets. Its simple construction makes it a timeless choice that will be loved and used for years.
Preparing Your Shirts
- Most machine-washable shirts and garments can be used.
- Please wash and dry all items before shipping or drop-off.
- You may cut shirts up the side seams and send only the portion you’d like used, but this is optional — we’re happy to cut them for you.
- If shirts are damaged or need light mending, we can take care of that as part of the process.
- Include notes if you’d like backs, sleeves, or additional areas used.
