Our T-Shirt Quilt FAQ
How Is Sew I Said Different From Other T-Shirt Quilt or T-Shirt Pillow Companies?
We realize that value is ultimately in the eye of the beholder. At Sew I Said, we pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality of workmanship and customer service. You don’t have to take it from us, you can read our more than 220+ 5-star Reviews and you’ll see for yourselves. We often get repeat customers for those who have multiple children graduating or we are referred to friends and family of our customers. You can view more than few T-Shirt Quilts, Custom Memory Quilts, and T-Shirt Pillows we’ve made for our customers in Our Past Projects Gallery.
And we hate to burry the lead, but WE ACTUALLY CREATE QUILTS. By Quilts we mean, 3 layers including your T-Shirts, Batting, and a Backing … and all 3 layers are quilted down and professionally bounded around all edges. We’ve found most of our competitors only sew around the T-Shirt top and Backing, so you easily pull apart the 2 sections … that’s not a Quilt in our opinion.
So if you want an actual T-Shirt Quilt, a high quality Custom Memory Quilt or T-Shirt Pillow that will last overtime, then we would enjoy you being one of our customers. Let’s Get Started.
