The first element of the design will be an animal whose name begins with the first letter of your first name.
§ If your first name is Ann, your animal choice may be an ape, an alligator, an ant, or an albatross.
The second element is a background color that starts with the first letter of your last name. § If your last name is Smith, the color you choose for your background may be “salmon”, silver, sea green, or “snow white”.
§ Back grounds may be one color or multi-colored.
§ The background may be a plain color, a quilt square of your choice, a scenic/landscape, or some other design.
