Hi, what is the steelers logo made of? Can we buy it in cotton?

The backing is just yellow Steelers fleece. I only put some batting under the Steeler circle to keep the black background fabric from showing through.

Sounds harder than it was.
It doesn't show but I did cross hatch quilting all over it, except on the circle. There I quilted different sized "#1" everywhere all over the circle and diamonds.

That's great! My oldest dd especially would love your Steelers quilt, she is a big fan like the rest of our family. But she snuggles in Steelers blankets, wears sweatshirts etc when watching a Steelers game.

Thanks.
No I made that myself. I cut a circle of white, made diamonds and the outer rim of the circle from the yellow, red and blue, then appiqued them on, and used a permanent marker with a wide chisel tip to print the word Steelers. (the printing took longer than anything else. I'm not artistic).
