I am offering to this group first. If no one is interested then I will offer to the quiltboard community as I know many repurpose shirts for quilting. I can fill a medium flat rate box for postage of $12.65. Let me know.

Sewbizgirl love the quilt. I love plaids and have several plaid blouses and plaid wool skirts but I am not motivated to quilt with shirtings. I love many of the shirting quilts I see and would probably enjoy one if I had it but I lack the visual interest needed to make a shirting quilt.
Because I know so many quilters make shirting quilts when I go to estate sales, if I can grab a stash full for cheap I do and pass them along.

One of our favorite quilts here at home is a shirt quilt I made. This is it while it was just a top:
