Our niece is getting married in March and she asked me about making a signature quilt for guests to sign instead of a guest book. There will be 80 blocks for people to sign then I'll assemble and quilt it as their gift. Here is the general idea:
I'll iron freezer paper to the back of the white squares for stability in signing. First, I'll draw straight lines on the back of paper as guidelines--they will be visible through the white fabric. I'll trim all the blocks to size after the signatures are done.
Take a look at Patchwork Times blog to see what others have on their design walls.
Let's quilt!

This is a fantastic idea and one that can be displayed and remembered instead of hidden away in a cabinet. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. You are a nice aunt to do all of this prep work for her!!!
ReplyDeleteI made signature blocks for my daughter's wedding and also my son's. Alas, neither sets are finished into quilts. But the wedding quilts are! Nice block idea for a signature quilt.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors! Lovely idea for a twist on the guest book :)
