K.P. It looks very nice. The pattern is perfect for your friend's quilt. Thanks for sharing. Eiltcoq.

It looks perfect!

What a wonderful idea. The design is very masculine---I'm sure she'll love and enjoy snuggling with it.
Good job, Kutnso

Love your quilt so far.....it is the same pattern I've picked out to make 4 twin size quilts for myself and 3 sisters from our Dad's shirts.

Very nice. Quilts like this mean so much.

It looks great! My only suggestion would be on the other side or in one of the corners, put a heart with their names on it! Perhaps ask her for one of her shirts to marry one of his and hers in one block with their names? I don't know, however you are an angel to do that for her! Bless you!
