what if each shirt (front and back counting as "one" shirt) had it's own row in the quilt, but each row is offset a little. so, the first row would have the front and back aligned to the left, the bottom row would have the front and back aligned to the right, and the middle rows aligned somewhere in between to give it a staggered look. then you could choose a single background fabric to fill in the negative space so it all looks cohesive and tie it all together with a border

I have pictures here, and I was hoping one of your great minds can give me an idea - or maybe just confirm that what I have is the best option

Then I am thinking I would add a stop border and then an outer border (either tshirt material or some grunge fabric)

So I have 4 shirts ... a front and the back. Do you think this would be the best option? or do yo have any suggestions?

Thank you
