My sister made this beauty.  Using two fabrics is unusual for her.  She usually uses more like 500!  This is a wedding gift for a Iowa State Cyclone fan so it is in the school colors.  It says "Go Cyclones!" in a very elegant way I think.  
For this one I did some custom quilting on it.  A feather border, feather wreaths in the center squares, scoop outlines in the gold triangles and circles in the gold squares.  And it's hard to see but theres a red border inside the HST border that I did some swirls in. 
I think it turned out quite lovely.  This is pretty fancy quilting, at least for me it is!  I used Connecting Threads Essential Pro thread in a golden yellow color throughout.  OK I just looked it up-cornsilk is the color name.  
Go State!!
