I saved my two sons t-shirts (now ages 21 and 26) from various sports and made quilts. How much should I charge someone to make a quilt for their child? Give me your thoughts...twin, full, Queen/king....one price if I provide supplies and one price if they provide supplies.

Beautiful quilt. No help on pricing.

I'd say goole t-shirt quilts and you'll get a good batch of people out that that do this for a business...they usually list their prices on their site.
Lot of things to take into consideration. I'd say no less than $350 for a full size one. |
thank you so much...I had thought that amount would be good but was afraid I would scare them!

Great job with the t shirts...

Go to etsy.com and search for custom tee shirt quilts. There are lots of folks who offer the service. You could get an idea of what they charge.

thanks for the info.....

I am currently saving my boys "special" shirts for a quilt or two someday. Yours is beautiful. Hope they liked it!

A lot! ;) And keep in mind that if they provide supplies, you need to be able to veto if they don't provide appropriate supplies. So give them a list and description, or go shopping with them. I'm making a T-shirt quilt for a friend, and we laid out her shirts ahead of time to calculate how much interfacing and how much sashing/border fabric we'd need (as well as to take pictures to keep track of where we'd decided to put each shirt). Then we went to the store together so I could help her with picking out the sashing/border fabric and show her possibilities for backing fabric (waiting to get that until we have the quilt top done - also gives her time to save $). Since we went to JAF, I was also able to give her a sale coupon to use.
And don't forget thread! |
