    This is where I am now...
    I have the tiger graphics cut out and on paper circles - what do you think? I thought it would be nice to change up the hard lines to something softer now. Wonder if I should make them balloons instead of circles??? I'm left with a very tiny yellow sashing on top and bottom and wanted a place to embroider her name and something else. Don't know if I should add one more wide border (white) to embroider on and to highlight quilting or just finish it off with @ 3" wide black border. It is back to square and I thought if I added the white border - it would be wider on top and bottom to elongate it a little. Opinions please.

    Where's the 'Geaux Tigers' at. My son is a huge LSU fan and he lives and breathes LSU. We went on a college visit and loved the campus, got to meet Mike, the tiger, and just really enjoyed ourselves. Baton Rouge is a great city and just loved the food there.

    I like the circles as is. Could you embroider above and/or below the center carriage? It looks great!

    I agree the use of circles over balloons and the idea of putting the name in the center piece.
