When it comes to T-shirt quilts, the most important thing to remember is that you want a knit fabric to act like a woven—quilts are not made to be stretchy. Backing them with a special interfacing made specifically for T-shirts is the key to a gorgeous finished quilt that will wash and wear beautifully—no sagging, just perfectly stable blocks made to last.
Learn how to make perfect cuts in precious T-shirts the first time with the T-Shirt Transformation Ruler—it helps you visualize each block before you cut. Remember, you only get one chance when it's that treasured!
Finally, use the right press cloth. Silkscreened elements and other forms of decoration can slip, slide, and smear with the touch of an iron. You need a reliable press cloth that won't stick. We recommend the T-Shirt Pressing Cloth: its woven construction allows steam to penetrate, but covered in a special finish that won't stick to T-shirt paints and transfers. Many sewists swear by it as the only pressing cloth they'll ever need.
T-shirt quilts are quite easy to master—you just need the right tools!
