Another barter quilt has been started and finished. The recipient is an ardent (rabid?) University of Alabama alumni. Using EQ7, I worked up the design using information from
Mary's post on some quilts she and her Mom have been making. Most of the information I was able to gather on the University of Alabama showed red & white. But occasionally, I saw an elephant, so the gray represents that elephant.

The words are machine appliqued using the back basting method; as much as I would have liked to do liberated letters, I know the recipient would not like them so I have chosen to do a nice clean font. The quilt size is roughly 55x75.
The center 'A' is quilted in a cross hatch and the rest of the quilting is loopy meandering. There is a little bit of the gray used in a flange in the center block.
