Turning old Greek T-shirts into...quilts???

Okay, here’s the issue. Now that I’ve graduated and been forced to grow up (those that are still undergrads, delay this transition as long as possible ) my wife and I have literally dozens of Homecoming, Rush, Bid Day, Iron Bowl, Grab-A-Date, Repaving the Driveway ’99, Crush Party, etc. T-shirts. The question is, what to do with all of them now? Unfortunately, a lot of them have shrunk considerably (the idea that I may have expanded just a bit since my college days would never cross my mind ) and those that haven’t, I just don’t have the opportunity to wear them as much as I had previously. Rather than allow them to continue to fill my dresser, banish them to cardboard boxes in the attic or turn them into work shirts, I would like to somehow display them or preserve them in some way. A fantastic idea I once read/heard about was turning the old shirts into a wall hanging / quilt by sewing all of the backs of the shirts together in rows and columns (like you would individual panels of a quilt), adding a backing and stuffing, then hanging from a curtain rod on the wall. What do y’all think? Any other suggestions or feedback on how y’all think this would look? Thanks!
