The Complete Planning System for Puzzle-Style T-Shirt Quilts
From shirt intake to one exact PDF—your complete map for piecing the quilt top together. And if you take client work, it’s ready to hand over for client approval before you sew a single seam.
Because you can see the entire quilt at once, you can make creative decisions about color, balance, size, and placement instead of simply trying to make everything fit.
Precision and creative freedom, working together.
There’s nothing like watching a pile of shirts transform into a quilt. From the first layout to the final stitching, every step is filled with care, intention, and excitement. Knowing that these quilts will be cherished for years, maybe even generations, fills me with purpose.
Not all meaningful garments are T-shirts, and your quilt shouldn’t be limited to them! I can create beautiful memory or memorial quilts using clothing such as button-down shirts, dresses, flannels, pajamas, uniforms, and more. These quilts honor the moments, people, and stories held in everyday fabrics—not just tees.
There’s something magical about a rag quilt — the texture, the softness, the way it blooms after the first wash. But if you’ve ever made one, you know they can also get heavy and bulky, especially at seam intersections.
That’s exactly why I revisited one of my favorite designs and gave it a thoughtful refresh.
Today I’m excited to introduce the updated Serendipity Rag Quilt Pattern — redesigned with a new construction technique that creates lighter seams, less bulk, and beautifully white, fluffy rag edges that bloom softer with every wash.
The Shabby Rag Rosey pattern I first released over 10 years ago now has a video course!
The pattern is still my best seller on Etsy, with loads of 5-star reviews, but it was time for the course!
The Shabby Rag Rosey Quilt Pattern is a unique design that uses a blooming method—no batting or binding required! Perfect for layer cakes, fat quarters, or your favorite floral scraps, it sews up fast and fluffs up beautifully after washing.
I’ll be with you every step of the way!
At this time, the longarm quilting services I provide are digital edge-to-edge designs.
This means that the quilting will be uniform across the quilt top and not area-specific.
My goal as a quilter is to make the quilting look custom by the way we carefully select the quilting design to match your quilt top.
For area specific, custom quilting, please contact me for more information.
Let’s work together!
I would love to help! When you choose Prayeriewife Quilting, you have the option to have me pick the quilting design. Some clients like to “choose from 3” and some know exactly what they want! Whether you are looking for a quilting design that is flowy, geometric, holiday-themed, feathers, juvenile or something else, we are sure to find a pantograph design that compliments your quilt top. With digital designs, I am not limited to paper pantograph sizes and scale. We can find a size and scale that meet your aesthetic and your quilting budget.
