Default tshirt quilt question

I am a newbie at making tshirt quilts. I just made my niece 4 and she was very happy with them. A neighbor asked me to make her one and I am working on that one now - she is actually purchasing all of the materials and paying me cash for my time. So I am pretty happy about that

My question is when you all make tshirt quilts do you "piece" the tshirt blocks to make them all the same size? I look at pictures and its really hard to tell because the pictures are not up close.

The lady gave me 20 shirts and asked me to shirt blocks with sashing in between... like the "Traditional Styel T Shirt" quilt on this link http://goosetracks.com/TshirtQuilt.html (about half way down the page - this is the example that she gave me)

Her shirts are all different sizes and I think they will have to be pieced to keep the logo centered. Her shirts are not as similar as the one in this picture.

Do you guys piece them - or just not worry about the logos being centered?

I don't like them pieced and I don't like the logos off center either.... ugh

Please let me know your thoughts

Thank you!
