About This Class
T‑shirt quilts are some of the most meaningful projects you can make — and they’re much easier than they look. In this two‑part workshop, you’ll learn how to turn well‑loved shirts into a memory quilt that celebrates your favorite events, teams, travels, or milestones.
Whether you’re using old shirts, new shirts, or a mix of both, you’ll be guided through stabilizing and preparing your T‑shirts, placing unusual or irregular graphics, and building single‑patch, two‑patch, or four‑patch blocks to create a layout that fits your style. T‑shirt quilts can be made in any size — from a small wall hanging to a king‑size keepsake.
The pattern is included with your class fee. And best of all, you do not need to bring your sewing machine to the first class — we’ll focus on planning, design, and prep work so you’re ready to sew in Part 2.
