Elizabeth A, Thank you so much for doing this for me. I'm disadvantaged in the 'puter department.. Thanks to my daughter who sent the picture to me through our email. The label on the back is a combination of one of the company's oldest shirts. The orange (kinda bright, huh) is the anniversary shirt pocket. I don't know if you can see that I have included several of the pockets.
As for the blocks that were incorporated -- it was to get a little unity. Some of the logos were larger than others and I thought it would add interest. Since the company that was celebrating the anniversary is named Blue Sky, I thought using flying geese would be appropriate.
I had so much fun making this shirt quilt and then surprising my DSIL with it. At first he said he was going to hang it on the wall; but he did bring it home and is using it. Says its very comfortable.
I also made a wall hanging for my DD to hang in her office. I used the other anniversary shirt which is a very bright lime green. The plaid that I used was navy, beige and green. Looks very nice (if I do say so myself :oops: ) Used the pocket and a series of the flying geese as well as the company logo.
