I talked to her mom about it and asked that same question....She told me she would LOVE an ohio state quilt...I just need to focus and figure it out
Maybe you don't really want a school related quilt but one that reflects the person you are giving it to!

Ideas to interpret your way or the symbol for the OS University?

There are a few ideas on this website that may give you the needed inspiration.

I googled The Ohio State University Quilts, and came up with a few sites that sold quilts. Perhaps that would help.

Maybe you can find some Ohio State fabric? My sister just did one for a nephew going to UCLA, and she found three different choices of fabric. I think she just googled it. She ordered it from somewhere. Then she just used the fabric in a pattern that only needed 3 fabrics. It turned out great.

I've been looking for OSU fabric for years. It's true that they do not license the fabric for sell to the public. Sheets, bedspreads and t=shirts are the only things I can think of that has the logo. You can check out Buckeye Corner to see what they have.

also Buckeye Connection

The Buckeye Corner has window treatments for $25 and a valance for $17. I've seen these cut up to be used as 'aprons' around a dish soap bottle. This might work. I've also seen shower curtains used. I actually have an OSU bathroom. I've got one curtain on it with a spare with a different pattern when I get tired of that one. But the fabric isn't really 100% cotton. I bought both shower curtains at Walmart in Ohio.
