Tips & Tricks With Memory T-Shirt Quilts - New Series - Part 1 Featuring Elmer's Glue & Baby Shirt 

my God i cant stop watching your videos i keep finding more and more, darn girl you are one busy lady !

great video love your stuff

The phone is just fine ...thank you for taking the time to make these tutorials I really appreciate the lessons and tips. I’m going to make a hot rod shirt quilt for my husband so I’m very happy to see the tip about stabilising before I started . By the way Love how you do your hair. 😘

You always have the answer to what I’m looking for! Thanksss!

At last! Yes, you're Right! I've been searching all over for a video on this. Thanks so much!

The phone works great for video. I am working on a t-shirt quilt for my daughter and I will use your technique. I use Elmer's glue quite often when quilting and find it very useful. Thanks for the great video.

Love this series. Thank you for sharing. I have a stack of Harley shirts that my fiancé has collected throughout the years and are too small now (must be my good cook in’) lol. I think it be a really cool quilt because they are dealer shirts from all over that have the city and state on them. He will be able to remember all his trips when he sees it.

I really enjoyed your demonstration. I learned a lot. Thank you.

I love your technique on clothing quilting. It looks light and neat.

you did great I loved how you did this looking to see more of your videos

I love that! Thank you for the tip of sketching on graph paper first!

Love your videos. You are real life creating beautiful reasonable things.

I am at 54 starting to sew and have always said I hate sewing when I secretly envied all my friends that made beautiful things when I fought learning in 7 years of home economics. Well I wanted to make quilts all my life and never believed I would and at Christmas a sweet lady gave me a sewing machine she was tossing out because the pedal was missing and I finally found a pedal online and have just started little projects and I couldn't remember how to thread the machine but my husband was kind enough to show me. He had asked to be shown years ago and sat down and reupholstered a 65 Mustang convertible. And it turned out like a professional had done it. Well I have a Cricut Maker and am pretty crafty and sewing is gonna come in with pillows and repurposing furniture. I have looked and looked online and you tube for my teachers and you've become my favorite because you use new and tried techniques. Now bear in mind for some reason I'm not getting this and I remember I didn't before either. And that's why I never wanted to try, but as long as I can stand less than perfect I am gonna keep on. I purchased a new machine and bought the Juki HZ something can't think but the machine I had already is a Euro ProX 385 and it's a dandy was planning to keep but think with all the interest and the price gouging right now that I'm gonna give to someone that wants to sew but can't really afford one. Okay that's my history looking forward to learning from you.

I so happy I found your site, as I was trying to do a baby blanket for my great grandson and you made it so easy to understand. Thank you. I will be tuning in for new ideas.

Thank you so very much. I just downloaded inkscape and love it. Love your videos

I have a sewing box exactly like the one you have and I love it.

another great video thanks..

Husqvarna sewing machine does that. Quick touch to the presserfoot, the foot raises just a smidge so you can turn the fabric.

The phone works great for videos. Thanks. I make a lot of tee shirt and photo quilts. Great tips!

Omg. Beautiful.

What a neat idea!!!! I never thought of using glue!!! wish I had seen your tutorial before I did Dresden Plate. Would have been helpful. Thanks!!!

Lisa, I LOVE my Patchwork Machine. JoAnns had them on sale for Labor Day and my daughter got if for me, as an early Christmas gift😃🤗. It just so happen that i got the last Patchwork Machine, in Pa, because the factory burnt down.🤭. Best bang for the buck ever, and you’re right, IT IS A BEAST! Since then, so may people have been going around to JoAnns looking for it because of the fantastic, “word of mouth” reviews. It included like, what about 12 different feet, including walking foot and buttonhole foot.🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

First timer here to your videos, it was excellent, love the way you put the t-sirt on. I am going to watch the rest. I made one quilt so far out of new born baby clothes. I and did the square design capturing the main element of the item. I did add socks and also printed some baby photos on plain fabric along with birth, wight, time, date and name, It turned out nice n mum was pleased but I would have loved to put all the item on like you did its more of a visual memory. Thank you so much for sharing this I really do appreciate it. I going to look at your other videos, hoping you have done one on how you did that design in Inkscape.

I did one in the tilt a block pattern out of kids clothes

I'm making a T-shirt quilt and should have watched your video first... But here we are. Just wondering if you ever have included size tags from the back of the shirts? I have tags from toddler sizes to Adult 16 for this memory quilt. Thought to incorporate in the binding. Any better ideas?

Do you find gluing takes less time than pinning? Does the glue not gum up your needle? Maybe that aspect of it is taken care of in the pressing.

i know that graph paper can be kind of hard to find at times in some areas. But at the dollar tree grap a roll of wrapping paper. not only this have have the graph on it but you can actually lat out the items you want to use.. and it would be reusable.

Awesome video! Thank you!! This is exactly what I need right now. Are you using a stretch needle for the shirt?

Lisa, how would you use/cut a collared golf shirt in a t-shirt quilt? Thank you! Julie Urosevich

What do you think about double sided T-shirt quilt? How would you join the panels? Would you recommend quilt as you go blocks? I think the only way you could do double sided is if you make one side frayed edges, right?

I use glue sticks instead of liquid glue.

What is the surface you are pressing on? The interfacing did not adhere to it when you pressed it on the shirt.

Love your video. Where did you find the sewing machine clock behind you?

What do you use on your ironing board that the interfacing doesn’t stick to when your iron goes beyond the shirt?

So informative! (Your sweet face was a treet to see!) I learned a lot from this. Thank you.

Just wondering if there’s a difference between a memory quilt that’s used and one that’s for keepsake or display. I’m learning many tips from you. Thank you

I want to make a quilt from my Mum's clothes but they are different fabrics (silk, viscose, satin, polyester mix, and cotton). Is this impossible?

What is your preferred stitch length and needle for t shirt quilts? I had way too short of a stitch and ended up with puckering. When I lengthened the stich, it was coming undone a tidbit as I was sewing the next square together. My needles come with a jersey needle is that a good one to use?

Hi Lisa, I'm loving your t-shirt quilting videos ❤️ thank you for posting! I have a question, what is the non stick surface that you are using to iron on the interfacing?

I am going to be making a T-shirt quilt for my grandson. One of his shirts is an actual jersey with buttons down the front. How do I prepare this? Do I still use the stabilizer?

What type board are you pressing on? Thanks for these valuable tips.

I can't find the continuation of this video. (There are hundreds of videos by Lisa!)

Do you add a picture after you put your stabilizer on. Like if you want to sew a picture on the t- shirt do you sew it on after the stabilizer or before.? And you cut your squares after you put the stabilizer on

OMG! Thank you! I have been looking for "how to" also!

thank you for the info on the iron you use......Now how did you fuse the iron on fusable to the baby t-shirt without fusing onto the board you were fusing on????

Do any of your videos show how to include a ball cap in a t-shirt quilt?

Just curious how much you charge for t-shirt quilts based on size like twin size up to king & memory quilts?,.. I’m wondering if I’m charging too cheap….

Loving this! But i do have a question. You mention when starting off to sink your needle in the backgroud fabric. Is your ziz zag then 'centered' over the raw edge or does the zig, in zig zag, ride along the raw edge and the zig zag design is on the piece you're sewing down? Thanks!

I’ve never used fusing stabilization. Why doesn’t the fusing stick to the area around the shirt?

How did you keep the interfacing from sticking to the area you used to iron it on the baby shirt?

Do you sign your quilts somehow? If you do, what do you use to sign it, a label?

I don't have an embroidery. Can I still make this quilt?

Where is the very next of this series? A friend has asked me if I could do one these quilt with her child t-shirts. I’d liked to see the rest.

Can I put my order in for you to make my T-shirt quilt?

Why isn't it sticking to the surface your working on?

I've downloaded Inkscape - how do you use it to plan a quilt like this?

Where can I find the rest of this series Tips & Tricks With Memory T-Shirt Quilts - New Series - Part 1 Featuring Elmer's Glue & Baby Shirt

Very good, but I’m laughing here at “your vision”, yeah I have loads of them too.....but my stuff always ends up looking like 💩 in the end :)......no vision at all on my part

where do I find the follow on videos please

Having trouble finding the next episodes of this series. i saw part 1...how can i find the rest??

Isn't E Scape a game app for the Iphone?

lol, I pet my sewing machines and my car too and I ask, "Please?" and say, "Thank You," while my daughter prefers to go straight to the Big Guy Upstairs. I can hear her praying in the passenger seat, "Don't let a deer jump out, don't let us run out of gas, help us find our car in the parking ramp..."

Watching video. Krystal Rivera. Make.

Do you quilt other people’s quilts?

So I started a baby clothes quilt and cut my fabric before I remembered to use interfacing or any kind of stabilizer. Can I still add this before I start sewing?! Thanks

When is the next video coming

I know this is one of your older ones. Where is the balance to this series?

Omg girl. Your video are good but dear God you talk way too much

I so happy I found your site, as I was trying to do a baby blanket for my great grandson and you made it so easy to understand. Thank you. I will be tuning in for new ideas.
