Default Quilt of Mens Shirts

The next quilt I plan on making is one made of mens' dress shirts/ cotton shirts. I was just wondering if anyone had any advice on making it. Some tips that would help me make the most out of this quilt.

My biggest worry is how different a quilt of mens' shirts will hold up (when being made and after) compared to quilters cotton.

My plan is to ask my male friends if they have any dress shirts that they no longer need, etc. Most of them are engineering students so they have nice clothes for co-ops...but they are still college student, but I bet their shirts don't last as long as others haha. But we'll have to see. Then once I've exhausted that resource, I'll probably head over to Savers/ Goodwill to see what I can find.

And I've already named it. It's the boyfriend quilt. Hopefully you guys get why I've named it so.
