Getting Started on Interfacing for T-shirt Quilts

Today we'll talk about the best interfacing for t-shirt quilts as I have a t-shirt quilt on my bucket list.

Making the T-Shirt Tote Bags has given me the confidence to plan my first ever T-Shirt Quilt!

[{"selector":"#anim-831e6cae-81e6-4a46-99aa-798633d92656","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-13c31cab-0c2f-41bd-b332-a0e9c9f663fd","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":300,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-414579f2-01e1-4a0c-aba4-6499ea1e9f37","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -99.14915%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":300,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

When fabrics don't fuse, I simply spray a little bit of basting spray, and that does the trick.

[{"selector":"#anim-bb43b46a-8276-4d9e-bd97-7a2f7909eeb8","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2ed25a52-5256-4462-acbb-ae978e577c8d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

Do not iron directly on the T-shirt design. You never know if the design will stick to the iron and ruin both the T-shirt and your iron.

[{"selector":"#anim-451b510d-cc7b-4408-93dd-8a03a3f75f11","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

When applying a stabilizer to a T-shirt in preparation for a project, I always cut a piece of interfacing slightly larger than the T-shirt.

[{"selector":"#anim-b27fd1f7-02b0-4224-aa71-fb6b92c94d31","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

I always sew with the stabilizer side up, and the other fabric underneath. I’ve found it moves through the machine more evenly this way.

[{"selector":"#anim-bde3d152-541a-4ce1-9f90-87c10dc83096","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

A good amount of stabilizer (interfacing) for a T-shirt quilt is 10 yards. That sounds like a lot, I know!

[{"selector":"#anim-42f6ca5a-4676-49f2-8e10-38199ae226b3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a7a66b00-9788-4328-9be3-ee1f527f14db","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more
