Wow! I hope I never have to piece that!! Good heavens, it made me dizzy,
just looking at it.

similar phrasing, I get thousands of hits, but they all seem to be for
t-shirt quilts.

A friend's 14-year-old daughter wants to make her first quilt from her
deceased father's shirts and I said I'd help.

I can't find a picture online, but Mary Mashuta has one in her book
"Story Quilts". It's called 'one-armed bandit' and has the collar and
one sleeve for each shirt.

A cute story goes with it about how the woman thought the pile of her
husband's shirts were for give-away so she cut off one sleeve off each.
Turned out he still wanted them....
