They are so nice and so much work, you should be able to keep one. I hope you get one too.

Sad to say I'm not going to be able to keep any for myself. The quilt goes to the shirt owner. The shirts were very large and he lost so much weight that he couldn't wear them any more. They were all Tommy Bahama silk shirts before I cut them up! I cut some expensive shirts! Kind of scarey since these were his favorites. He actually gave many more away to friends to wear. I also have two rayon shirts that I am going to make into pillow for him. I didn't want to mix the rayon and silk. I should get a fairly decent size quilt out of the shirts.
