What I was thinking , that I will put the quilt together after all the blocks are done. One of my biggest issues is wanting something done a certain way and just doing it myself. I don't want to do that, i want all the ladies involved. Thought I might cut the blocks, give them a color scheme and let them make their own block. Use the embroidered photo for the center. maybe she will also embroider a label for the back with all our names, rather than a signature quilt. Thanks for all your ideas, I don't know how many are sewers or quilters. I'm gone from home for at least another month.
