Why aren't you creating the subview in -initWithFrame: or in a nib/storyboard? The purpose of -drawRect: is solely to [re-]draw the contents of one view, not build a view hierarchy. I expect that modifying the view hierarchy while in the middle of a drawing cycle is leaving views in an inconsistent state.
