You are going to be amazed at the amount of fabric that can be harvested from these clothes. I have used 6 of my late husband's shirts to make 3--38" square wall hangings, 2 small wall hangings and a queen sized quilt and still have the full backs and most of the fronts left for further consideration. I used Bonnie Hunter's method of deboning the shirts. I also used one of those craft boxes like embroidery floss can be wound on cardboards and put the buttons in those little compartments. Those will be handy for future consideration that buttons in each section will already be matched.
