I made a memory quilt from a family reunion. I used a very good quality, high thread count white cotton and had the squares cut ready for signing. I took permanent markers, the Magna pigma pens, and had a table set up for everyone to write a memory from growing up in our family. I then pieced it together with pictures from the reunion I printed on Printed Treasures fabric sheets. I gave the quilt to my mom and she loved it! My only suggestion....Make sure they don't write too close to the edge. There where times when I wasn't near the table and many people wrote alot and went right to the edge of the square. This meant alot to my mom and I really enjoyed reading everything that everyone wrote. We are taking it to the family reunion this week to share it with everyone! Good Luck..
