I was asked about my Avator so. It is a modification of a pattern by Glendora's Girl "Center Ice."

I put on some machine embroidery and also purchased various crests related to the Pittsburgh Penguins.

The borders are hard to see but they are black, black with gold, and black (Penguins colours). I also changed the player to match the Penguins uniform.

I put some hockey player fabric on the back. A lot of people I have shown the quilt to think that it could be reversible. I am not sure.

Any way that's its history.
