Thanks goes to the following: Anonymous “Be Someone” graffiti artist, Shannon Brinkley for the use of her Houston skyline design, Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo for the use of their logo, Urban Threads for their Night Owl and Stitchin Safari embroidery designs, Embroidery Library for the Double Run embroidery design and Apex Embroidery for their font designs. All other blocks are original designs of the quilter.

As you drive into downtown Houston from the north, train tracks cross over I-45. On the side of the steel support beam used to be graffitied the phrase "Be Someone". This simple phrase was the basis for the design of the quilt. Words and images that define Houston were utilized to showcase some of the best Houston has to offer, emphasizing how individuals chose to "Be Someone" and create the great city known as Houston.
