T-Shirt Quilts

Turn your favorite shirts into a lasting, personalized quilt that tells your story. Needle on the Run specializes in handcrafted t-shirt quilts made from the tees that hold your memories—concert shirts, sports jerseys, college apparel, race shirts, band merch, and more. Each quilt is carefully designed to preserve logos, artwork, and text, using a thoughtful layout, premium quilt cotton fabric and high-quality stabilizer and batting materials to ensure warmth, and longevity.

How it works

  • Send your shirts: We provide clear instructions for preparing and shipping your shirts. If you are local to Lexington, SC a drop off location can be arranged.

  • Handcrafted construction: Quilts are professionally cut, stabilized, and pieced with sashing to frame each shirt.

  • Quilting: quilting is done using a hand-guided method on a longarm quilting machine. Patterns to choose from include: organic lines, stippling or loops.

  • Final touches: Edges are finished with a durable binding and optional personalization —names, dates, or labels—to make the quilt uniquely yours. Personalized labels are an extra charge.
