A square refers to one t-shirt square within your t-shirt quilt. A standard square is 15 inches on all sides, and it can be made from the front, back, or sides of a shirt or any other item you want included in your quilt. It can also contain anything you want us to sew onto a 15 inch blank square, such as the pockets from t-shirts, ties, arm patches, etc. Unlike other t-shirt quilting businesses, we try to customize each quilt and choose a square size that works best. That way, we do not sew over or cut out any desired graphic. We will find a way to get your desired graphic on your t-shirt quilt without sacrificing your design or the quality of the quilt. Every quilt is different, and every quilt deserves the special attention it is given by our master quilters.
