Quilt Made From Men's Shirts

I was given a bunch of men's shirts so I decided to make a quilt. Thought I would use all recycled fabric so the sashing are made from a sheet and the back (which I couldn't upload a picture of) was a flannel sheet. It survived the wash so I think I did all right. LOL

I seem to always love D9P quilts and yours is not exception. This would make a great quilt for a man, young or old. And it looks warm and cozy too. Nice job!

The disappearing 4-patch was the first "complex" block I tried to make, I just love them. Your quilt is beautiful and gives me more ideas for when I finally make one with my dad's shirts (and later, my son's).
