Just iron the lightweight fusible interfacing on the back of the shirts, and use them as you would any other fabric for the blocks. Definitely invest in a teflon pressing sheet for this project! And then you can use any quilt pattern you want that uses large blocks. Try the BQ patterns from Maple Island Quilts.
This one had t-shirts, sweatshirts and lightweight jersey fabric in it. I even pieced together a few squares from her super small skirts and shirts, and appliquéd a sleeve onto the bottom of one shirt block for balance and to use the cool pocket logo.
And use a hoodie pocket in a middle side block to stash the tv remote in! (and remember to not quilt the pocket shut!)
