T-Shirt Quilt
Bring your stack of treasured t-shirts and sweatshirts and turn them into a one-of-a-kind upcycled quilt! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to cut and prepare your shirts—pockets, collars, logos, and all—then stitch them into a memory-filled small throw quilt.
The process is simple to learn, endlessly creative, and a wonderful way to preserve your favorite shirts in a quilt you’ll cherish. While you won’t have a finished quilt by the end of class, you’ll be well on your way and ready to complete it at home. This is a two-Saturday class, with time in between sessions to keep working on your project.
