Here's a small wall hanging I did for a great nephew's birth.

Jan in VA

The fabric in the center was a tree, hard to tell here. That's where the geneology was printed. Each of the other blocks were signature squares from those in attendance at his baby shower......including 2 year old cousin Maddie's block, top left. :)

I've never seen these done as quilts, but I'm also a genealogist, and I believe the kind of "tree" she's talking about is like this:
