Construction is underway on Katie's University of Michigan quilt. We had a blast searching for the perfect blue and yellow fabrics at quilt shops all over Houston. The "M" is 18" tall. I'm planning on this being the center block in the quilt. The yellow strips in the lower right are the beginnings of a water polo ball. I'm using a new applique technique called back basting.
The eagle with the anchor is the Navy emblem. We are waiting to hear from the Navy to know if she will be given a scholarship her freshman year. She will be part of the Navy ROTC program for nursing at U Mich. The eagle on the quilt is missing its talons--I haven't forgotten them!
