Our Custom Quilting Process
Creating a custom quilt out of quilt fabric is a rewarding process that blends creativity, precision, and personal expression. Each quilt is a unique collaboration between maker and client designed to reflect your style, story, or occasion.
Once we’ve discussed the design, pattern, and fabric selection, I’ll provide a detailed estimate based on size, complexity, and any special features you’d like to include. From there, we bring your vision to life one stitch at a time

Looking to create a T- Shirt Quilt or Memory Quilt?
Here’s How It Works
Select Shirts: Choose garments with meaningful graphics or logos. These can be tshirt, sweatshirts, dri-fit, flannel or jerseys.
Stabilize the Fabric: Apply lightweight fusible interfacing to prevent stretching.
Design the Layout: Plan the arrangement of blocks, colors, and any borders or sashing.
Cut to Size: We trim each shirt panel to a uniform block size based on your layout.
Add Sashing, if desired: We’ll sew strips of fabric between blocks to frame each shirt and add structure.
Sew the Quilt Top: We then stitch blocks and sashing together row by row.
Quilt the Layers: We layer the quilt top with batting and backing, then quilt through all layers.
Binding the Edges: We finish with binding around the perimeter for a clean, durable edge that will last you generations!
