A blanket made from your favorite, childhood tee shirts. My girlfriend Linda had one made from her childhood tee shirts about 15 years ago – and I always thought it was the coolest idea. I spotted this etsy seller – art2theextreme of Fishers, Indiana — whose shop seamstress can convert your tee shirt into a custom tee shirt memory blanket for $95.

Brilliant, a wonderful spin on vintage memory quilts.
Now I want to make one. I can see a travel one for the RV. I bet they are really comfy.
I’d love to do the same thing with all the cool graphic tees I see out there. I’ve actually started a pile of t-shirts that I’ve retired, but don’t want to get rid of because I still the graphics on them. I’ve actually thought about making a quilt out of it… it was interesting to see this blog go up! Thanks for it.
I first saw one of these about 25 years ago. A man who was a runner had a quilt made out of T-shirts he got at road races. He didn’t have enough storage space for all the T-shirts and couldn’t begin to wear them all, but he hated to get rid of them because they were reminders of fun days in his life. The quilt was the perfect way to preserve his memories.
