Custom T-Shirt Quilts
in Atlanta
Those shirts are taking up a drawer and you can not bring yourself to get rid of them. I turn them into a handmade quilt you will actually use.
Every Shirt Has a Story. This Is How You Keep It.
A t-shirt quilt is made from shirts you already own -- band tees, college shirts, race event shirts, sports jerseys, or any collection of tops that represent a chapter of your life. Instead of sitting in a bin, they become a usable, handmade quilt that holds every one of those memories.
These quilts are popular graduation gifts, retirement gifts, and personal keepsakes. They are also one of the most common requests I get from parents preserving their kids' sports years or fans who have run out of closet space.
Every quilt starts with a free consultation -- we talk through which shirts to include, what size works best, and how you want the finished quilt to look and feel.

If You Wore It, It Can Be in the Quilt
Almost any shirt or jersey can be incorporated. Here are some of the most popular.
Sports Jerseys & Warmups
Team jerseys, practice gear, and warmup jackets from seasons and careers worth remembering.
College & University Shirts
Four years of campus life -- orientation tees, homecoming shirts, club gear, and Greek chapter apparel.
Band & Concert Tees
Tour shirts and concert tees collected over years of shows -- too good to wear out, too good to throw away.
Fan & Team Apparel
NFL, NBA, MLB, and college fan gear collected across decades of loyalty to your teams.
Race & Event Shirts
5K, half marathon, and charity race shirts that represent real milestones -- one finish line at a time.
Sorority & Fraternity Shirts
Chapter shirts, step show tees, and Greek life apparel that carry years of sisterhood and brotherhood.
Two Ways to Build Your Quilt
Both styles showcase your shirts beautifully. The right choice depends on how many shirts you have and the look you are going for.
Gallery Style
Clean, structured, and symmetrical. Every shirt is cut to the same block size for a polished, grid-like finish. Optional sashing can frame each block if you want a little breathing room between designs.
- All blocks cut to a uniform size
- Optional sashing available between blocks
- Best for collections with similar graphic sizes
- Popular for sports seasons, event series, and school years
Collage Style
Dynamic, editorial, and expressive. Each shirt is cut to fit its own graphic so nothing important gets cropped. No two collage quilts ever look the same.
- Block sizes vary to match each graphic
- Best for mixed graphic sizes and varied collections
- Popular for memorial quilts and sentimental clothing
- Freeform layout -- more creative, less structured
