There is a quilt that has a large outline of Texas in the center, made up of patches of fabric that have Texas themes. It is on a neutral background usually, with blocks around that with boots, bluebonnets, etc. YOu could do something like that, with a horned toad in one of the blocks. I don't know the name of the quilt, but at our last quilt show, there were at least 8 of them, so it must be popular. Wish I had a picture of one, but I don.t
I may go google and see if I find one.
