If you are looking for a custom t-shirt quilt please contact me for more info.
Options for additional cost:
Binding machine stitched to front and hand stitched to back $0.10 per linear inch
Components from several shirts pieced to make one 15 inch square an additional $10.00
Each t-shirt is cut to be a finished measurement a 15 inches square. The cost of the quilt includes fabric stabilizer, thread, sewing machine needles, cutting blades, fabric (for borders/sashing, back of quilt and binding), batting, and labor for the quilt.
Labor includes the cutting of t-shirts, application of fabric stabilizer, the piecing of the t-shirts, professional machine quilting (when the quilt is put together with the batting and top stitched), and application of the binding.
I use 100% cotton fabric for sashing, borders and backing of quilt. Please let me know what color/colors you'd like for your fabric. If you'd like specific themed fabric there will be an extra cost for my time and travel to find the correct fabric for your quilt.
The batting (the material that goes between the top and bottom of your quilt) is also 100% cotton.
Bindings (the finished fabric edge to your quilt) are made of 100% cotton fabric. It will be the same fabric used in the rest of your quilt. The binding is machine applied unless otherwise requested . An extra cost will be incurred if you'd like the binding hand stitched.
If you choose to have sashing and borders, the sashing will be 2 inches in width and borders 5 inches in width.
All you have to do is supply the t-shirts!
