TShirts into quilts

Like many of you, I've been hoarding TShirts for years and years (an years). I've always admired and bid on the team quilts at IRI.

I found a company that will take your shirts and create a quilt from them Project Repat. They will make almost any size and can manage either a single shirt side/fleece or both sides of shirts.

Pretty simple process. Log into the site, pick quilt size and style. They send you a bag with a prepaid mailer. Pick your shirts out and mark which side(s) they are to cut to a 12"x12" square. In my case, I had to ship 48 shirts, so I had to box them and then use the prepaid sticker.

Four weeks later I got my double sided 4*6 quilt back. It is amazing. I'm super pleased with the job that they did. And I can see all of my fondest robot memories while I drift off to sleep

For those of you looking for a great Christmas gift, this may be the way to go. (And for those that can't sneak 30 shirts out of the house they have a Gift Card that saves you $50. Teams looking for an unique fundraiser may want to consider it. Who wouldn't want ALL of your team shirts!

Highly recommended way to either create a keepsake or keep you off of "T-Shirt Hoarders"
