    My son has decided to go to UNT. I want to make a quilt for his bed. Colors are kelly green and white. Mean Green is what they call themselves. Logo is an eagle in flight landing with talons out like it was about to pick something up. He is going to be majoring in computers. I'm at a loss for a pattern or idea. Help!

    Well depends on the type of quilt you want to do. If you want just a traditional - you could do a 2 color quilt of any pattern that you like.

    I'm making a quilt for my son and the school symbol is the falcons. I found a pic of a falcon and am going to applique with school name as the center block. Then you could do blocks with different computer items on them.

    Maybe an eagle in the center? There is a LOT of free clip art available that could be used for applique.
    Then you could use the green and white for the borders. Possibly a little black maybe to make the other colors pop? :D:D:D
