I agree with Prism. I made a memory quilt and was given 2 plaid shirts also. I used them for one of the borders. One shirt was a light summer plaid..and was soft from use. I used the same tricot fusible for that shirt that I did for the tshirts. It had a nice hand, but did not add bulk. I was afraid without it, that plaid would wear out before the rest of the fabrics.
