Default Recycled men's shirts

I just finished and delivered this one. I shopped every Goodwill and Salvation Army and thrift store in the county looking for blue striped shirts in 100% cotton. I have a hard time making quilts for baby boys. I can't applique and all the cute ones require that it seems. So this is what I came up with. Simple, but I like the way it turned out. I only used the front panel on the shirts so now I will have to come up with more ideas to use up the rest. It was cheaper at most places than buying yardage. The XL shirts have lots of fabric!! I may have to start looking at other used clothing in the future! Oh and it's super soft due to the fact the shirts have been washed so many times!
