I would ask for more shirts if there are more available.

Better to have them and not need them, than to need more and not have them.

I too cut the shirts in strips and made it like a jelly roll race quilt. It came out to be a nice sized lap sized quilt. I used some of my dad's shirts and made them into a quilt for one of his brothers who found great comfort in having it. What could be softer than well worn shirts!

This is my latest shirt quilt with pockets and labels into it, and in this pinterest you can find a lot of ideas about recycled shirt quilts.
