Default A t-shirt quilt top for my sister

My sister brought me a whole sack full of new t-shirts that they had bought while on different vacations over the years. She asked me to make her a t-shirt quilt with them. Only one of the shirts had anything on the back. So, I had to cut up most of the shirts to get this quilt. She only asked one thing and that was that I put the front of the shirt that had Prayer, hope and faith for Emma in the middle of the quilt. Emma is her great grand by marriage that has a debilitating deadly disease. She has no quality of life now and no hope for any. Here it is. Opinions please!

Great T shirt quilt! Did you use pieces of the shirts for the piano key border? It matches perfectly!

Yes. I did use the bottom pieces from the fronts of the shirts for the keys. It worked out pretty well.
