“Painted” in Photoshop with the posterize filter added at the end. I created my own Photoshop brushes to make the quilt stitches.
Update 12/22/07: Take a look at how this piece became a logo for Non-Runner Nancy’s blog about training for a marathon.

Gretchen - I was just searching images on google for a clever 9 patch. I am looking to piece together a logo potentially for a race in February. (you can look at my site for an example of a race I just directed — and the lame logo I used. I’m looking to improve upon this effort! ) This is only for a virtual race for a group of runners that blog. When I saw this heart 9 patch, I started thinking about the possiblities for hearts in February. Would I be able to use this picture as part of a logo if I gave you credit?
If this is totally confusing, it might help to visit my site and see the race I recently posted. Also, I have no idea if you do this for fun or profit and if this is potentially a cool thing to be asked or being rude to ask to use your art for free. Please forgive my ignorance. Anyway, I loved your artwork.
