Okay, I'm getting ready to start drawing my design on the fabric. I'm definitely going to do their names & date - you think embroidering this is the way to go? Or should I try quilting it?

And then do the diagonal lines for the whole rest of the quilt? Or did you mean inside the heart?

One thing I was thinking of doing is tying the center (the green part), and doing a simple lattice pattern on the sides (the white). Thoughts?

The other thing I was going to try was to do a meandering with hearts or something all over besides the names & date in center - but is this too ambitious for a beginner? I think I can do it but don't want to risk screwing it up. :) I'm not good at envisioning what it will look like quilted, which is why I'm perfectly happy to do something simple like lines or lattice..I just want it to look really nice!
