Greetings and welcome! 

I get asked many times, ‘how did you start making t-shirt quilts?’ It all began with a boy and falling in love as most good stories start. But this boy came to me as a sweet baby 20 years ago. It was love at first sight and I knew I wanted to treasure every minute.

He always had the cutest shirts with funny saying when he was a baby. Then came the school years where all he wanted to wear were jeans and tees. Some tees he wore out along with the jeans. Endless days of play, sun and mud! As the boy grew and the tees got smaller and the jeans were full of holes, I still wanted to keep a part of that little boy forever. So I started saving a few of his favorites, salvaged the scraps from his jeans and tucked them away for the day that I could make a quilt for him and give him back a bit of his childhood.

That’s when the seed for Meg’s Quilted Memories was planted.

With the addition of two more children, I knew that I wanted to do the same for them. As my daughter grew, we’d talk about her quilt and tuck special items away for hers. My other son will toss me a shirt and say ‘here’s one for my quilt too.’ I started making the tshirt quilt from my oldest. Soon there came a request from a friend to do one for their child, then another friend asked for one, then another, and another. I knew it was time to move this to the next level.

I know how precious your tshirts are! Our closets are full of them and our dressers are stuffed but we love our tees! We live in our tees, sleep in them, cry in them. We can look at a tee and it’ll take us back to a favorite concert or vacation. Our sports tees announce our accomplishments. Our tshirts are very personal to us.

I take the utmost care with your precious memories. Each quilt is as unique as you are and can be customized to fit your personality. I welcome the opportunity to preserve your treasures for years to come. You can reach me at any of the links below.

I hope your day today is as warm and comfortable as your favorite tee!

Meg
