Because a quilt need not be a direct representation --- think flying geese or log cabins --- why not make a derivative of this picture/poster/whatever it is? Use the same colors, approximate shapes, and a lot of artistic license to create your own art that "reminds" you and sis of this thing.

She doesn't quilt, I do. Am I this nice a sister? I haven't decided yet if I want to tackle something like this. Assuming I decide to take the plunge, anyone have suggestions?
Holy yeow! She'd better hope she never bit you or anything.
