Timeline of a Tshirt Quilt, why it takes so long to have one made.

A tshirt quilt is a great way to recycle your collection of tees into a functional quilt.  The planning process takes the longest, the sewing is the quickest, at least for me it is.  The first step is gathering your tees.  Most people know exactly what they want in their tshirt quilt.  For those who don't, just put everything in a box and ship it to us.  We'll sort out your tees, email a preview and give several options to choose from.  Any unused tees will be returned or recycled in our Give Back Program.  Getting started could take months, sometimes years to achieve.  I believe that it's the hesitant of letting go of something that is important to us.  I also believe that our customers should take as much time as they need to get past this feeling.  Some may think it's silly, but I'm sure we're all guilty, I know I am.
