Shirt Pocket Quilt

I'm sharing a quilt I did for a customer from a couple of years ago. I saw it in my pictures the other day and every time I see it, I want to make it! Not that I have the time, but I love everything about this quilt. I'm sorry I don't have the pattern name for you. I do know that my friend, Gwen, who made this, said it was difficult because the shirts were all different.Gwen shirt 1 Her purpose for this quilt was to showcase some of her hankie collection in the pockets. It was a challenge to quilt in the placket area of the shirt, due to the thickness and the buttons that she left on the shirts, but I figured it out! Gwen shirt 2 

She also did the black embroidery around each pocket that gave it the finishing touch!
