Saving a son's t-shirt memories quilt
May 05, 2014
We get a lot of customers who can't believe our price. They want their memories reserved at an affordable price, but when they see it, they can't believe it.
I understand. You have kept these t-shirts for years, holding on to the memories, and also you remember the money you have spent on them. But they no longer fit, and you can't bear to get rid of the memories.
And now your son is moving on-- he's out of the house, but he still can't let go of the shirts. While men just seem to collect shirts, they often don't want to recognize the emotional attachment they have to them, but also refuse to throw them out. As it turns out, so many of our customers are women going through son's, husbands and boyfriends closets and clearing out closet space. The guy never notices the shirt and then all of a sudden, he is quite pleased to see all of his shirts in one place. In most cases, he forgot about half the shirts.
Here's a story from one mother who saved all of her son's shirts and turned them into a t-shirt quilt with Project Repat.
"I've been saving the t-shirts of our two sons for years. I've always known I wanted to gift them each with a quilt on their 21st birthday. The time finally arrived but I was finding really high prices on the internet. I came across projectrepat and was thrilled at the low cost of their quilts. I was a bit concerned that I may be sacrificing quality for price, but the reviews were good so I gave it a try. I'm so glad I did! The process was so easy and each time I emailed customer service, they replied promptly and were so helpful. The quilt is amazing and my son loves it! We've had many people ask about it so I fully intend to take advantage of the referral program for our next quilt!"
