I'm guessing you want to know the meaning of the pharse, not the literal meaning, if so then let me try. It means to be extra careful of whatever you are doing. To double check your work or project. To make sure you haven't left any errors in, or left anything out of , whatever you might be doing. When you edit or review something to make sure it is the best you can do. Double checking any work for errors or omissions. It comes from back in the day when everything was written by hand, and you needed to make sure that all the "T" were crossed and all the "I" were dotted in any written document, before it was read by others. If they weren't then they looked similar to each other and were easily confused, making for very interesting reading. Sometimes, when someone says "Make sure to cross all the t's and dot all the i's", the implication is that the work will be reviewed, or is subject to review in the future; there may be consequences if the work being prepared is not done fully and accurately.
