Quilt Styles
Choosing the right quilt for you

Once you select the type of quilt you want – Memory, Tee, Necktie, Award Ribbon – you will want to select the style that best suits your use intentions and best displays the materials you submit for the end product … your custom heirloom quilt.

The “type” names indicate the basic materials used, while the “style” indicates how those materials are worked into and displayed against the other fabrics used to complete the project. The “standard” style stitches all the submitted materials together in a single mosaic pattern, with matching or contrasting border and edge fabric used to complete the quilt and arrive at the desired size you want. The “traditional” quilt style separates your materials (neckties, tee shirts, photo transfers, award ribbons, etc.) with fabric spacers/sashing, with stripes of fabric worked into the design to add design character and achieve the desired completed size.
