My niece had a small Las Vegas wedding on 7-7-07. I cut out squares of beige fabric and passed them around at the dinner with permanent pens. Later, I used them as the center to snowball blocks for a wall hanging. I also included a couple of fabric "frames" to put pictures of the happy couple, the chapel where they were married and an embroidery that I had made with their names and date. In hindsight, I would have made the snowball blocks before I gave them out for people to sign. That would keep people from writing in the seam allowance. I had to "squeeze" a couple of squares to make them work! One of my squares got picked up by a waitress clearing tables and went into the garbage because it looked like nothing before it was written on.
