Yes they were! (2.5" squares.)

Here is the pattern I worked out on EQ6 for anyone who might want to have it. You can use this and use any size squares you want. I used 2.5".

WOW, this quilt is gorgeous. I love how you've added the black & white squares and how you placed them. You're doing an awesome job with your "old shirts".

You are amazing and the recycling more than beautiful, proving anything that is old can be new again! Wonderful ideas

Beautiful quilt!

I've made quilts with recycled shirts and jeans also. I've been wanting to make another one for myself. I think I will borrow your design to make my next one. Thanks for sharing!
