Hello pgreeno,
I search the web to get ideas how to piece this quilt. Previous posts have described the two main ways: Cut all blocks with measurements all divisible by the same number. Like all dimensions are divisible by 4 so everything is 4, 8, 12, 16, etc. Pad each block to fill in any open spacing, like sashing but not always the same width and height. I couldn't use these because my grandson didn't want any sashing or fabric except the shirts and because some of the shirts were so little, I couldn't even always cut blocks that were divisible by 1. So what I did was that a photo of each shirt and upload it to my computer. Then I measured each logo. I cropped the photo down to the logo and resized it to 50% of the actual size. For example, if the logo was 6.5" x 8 inches on the shirt, I would crop the photo to where it had only the logo. Then I would resize it to be 3.75x 4. The advantage to using cropped photos that are sized proportionally to each other is that you can "uncrop" to fill in spaces. Then I just played around to get them arranged so they fit and I like them. I only ended up with two small spaces. I filled these with a crossed stitch piece that said Sally (long story) and an embroidered US flag with lax sticks as the stripes that I found on T shirts on the web. It took only one partial seam. Partial seams aren't difficult. There are lots of tutorials and videos on the web. I used this one:

I've attach a couple of documents I created that show what I have discussed above and show the assembly steps. I hope this helps. Please don't hesitate to ask for clarification if I didn't explain something well enough.
Bragging grandmother alert!!! My grandson is a very good lacrosse player and has played on some of the top club teams in the country over the years. He verbally committed to DI Air Force Academy in November of his sophomore year in high school. I am very, very proud of him and love to watch him play. I live is south Denver, so I'll be able to watch him play all through his college years as well!
