Any suggestions anyone???
I thought up and created a Happy Home block and a Coffee Break block, so I need two more.

Another question. They have lost one daughter to illness. I have two thoughts on how to represent this. One is to have an angel square. The other is to have the word "FAMILY" quilted on a square, and to have the outline of an angel represent the letter L. Would that be ok do you think? Or would it be tacky to include it?
I helped my friend build a memorial garden for her deceased daughter and she has many angels in the garden.
Dancing could be represented by using footprints and diagrams for a dance, with embroidered dotted lines to show movement.
