Turn that stack of old T-shirts into something you love.

Well here’s that something, and it’s something you’ve been wanting to make: a T-shirt quilt! See how Laura at Trash To Couture refashioned a stack of her husband’s sports Ts into a one-of-a-kind quilt that’s not only cozy, but packed with fond memories, too.

T-shirts quilts are nothing new. They’re popular because we all tend to have so many T-shirts that we just can’t part with: T-shirts celebrating college days, festivals & concerts, sports, etc.
A T-shirt quilt is a simple DIY project that is so satisfying to complete because it serves as an homage to the glory days! They make fantastic gifts, too – great for your graduate, kids and spouse. |
