Custom Tshirt Memory Keepsake Rag Quilt Fleece or Minky

Ive already cut my cuddle fleece to size and i was a little intimated about going forward, but now im excited to keep going!

How to make a tshirt quilt with fleece backing. (quilts can be up to 105 wide) view sizes >>. How the joined sections look from the back. Stitch your completed rows together to complete your quilt front.

Lay the pattern over the back or front of each shirt (whichever part you want on the quilt) and make sure the design is centered as much as possible. Make sure to prewash your backing fabric. For this size, you need approximately 6 yards of fleece.

Put the backs (the fleece side) of the squares together and sew with a 1/2 inch seam allowance. Use polar fleece yardage for the quilt backing. Pin that to the edge of the backing instead of using the clamp as you see in this photo.

Thank you for showing us how to keep things simple and for explaining all the steps so well! Time for a quick sit down quilting video! Now, you're going to stitch, or quilt, down your rows and columns right down.

Lay out your backing (mine was fleece). It got me wondering how it works to quilt with fleece as your backing fabric. You can still pull too tightly with this trick, but it will eliminate the weight of the clamp as a variable, and it is especially helpful if.

Adjust the pressure as you normally would. Pin your layers in place, then stitch a straight stitch all around the perimeter, leaving an opening to turn the quilt right side out. Lay out the polar fleece backing with the right side of the fleece facing down.

If you are going to use a sheet on the back, make sure it is 300 thread count or higher. This is a baby quilt im making for my new grandchild. Position the backing fabric on top of that, with the right side of the backing fabric facing down.

Last week i was in hobby lobby and i saw they had a huge stock of fleece fabric in really pretty colors and designs. Without quilting and batting, the quilt top is sewn to the fleece with the good sides facing together and then turned inside out. Lay the fleece right side down on the floor or a large table.

Often it isnt easy to tell which is the right side and which is the wrong side. Blankets have a size limit of 60 wide. The fleece i used was quite thick and i felt eliminated the need for additional batting.

I've made several tshirt quilts with fleece backing, and did not use any batting. This serves to attach the layers much like stitching would for a quilt, but in a more casual simplified way. For this size, you need approximately 5 1/4 yards of fleece.

Overlap the pressing areas to make sure you cover all parts of the image. I had heard that cuddle fleece was a pain to use for quilt backing, but you make it look so easy! Lay the quilt out again, spreading it flat and even.

A full quilt is 81 x 88 inches. Find the right side of the fleece. Then place your batting on top of it, then your quilt top that you pieced together on top of that.

Sew your stabilized shirts together into rows, stitching each piece into place with the right sides together and pressing each row after sewing. So i bought a few yards and gave it a go! The higher the count, the better quality the sheet.

Spray the wrong side of your plush backing fabric. Center the wrong side of the patchwork front against the fleece. Smooth the layers of fabric to remove all wrinkles and center the quilt top in the exact center of the polar fleece backing (the polar fleece backing will be 1.5 inches larger than the quilt top on all sides).

Smooth and pin to hold. This is a 10 to 20 minute job. I spray outside and then bring the backing inside.

Pin the entire quilt throughout through both layers at corners and along seams of all shirts. And i think it gives a nice frame to each section, as well. Fleece curls to the right side on its lengthwise grain (parallel to the selvages), and to the wrong side on its crosswise grain (perpendicular to the selvages).

This will keep your backing in place as you sew. A strip of the backing fabric covers each join on the back. This will leave 1/2 inch of rough edges on the front side of the quilt.

I read that using a light spray adhesive helps to keep it all in place, but i did not have any so i used masking tape on my kitchen floor. You will have the cheapest quality quilt that won't last. Place the quilt top over the polar fleece with the right side facing up.

As you can see, a thin strip of black fabric separates each section and is how the sections are joined together.
