Could you all give me some advice on maybe the best fabric (needs to be a white or off white) and pens to use for the signatures? Should I cut out the squares before they sign them?

I'd use white/off white 5" squares ironed to freezer paper for the signatures. The fabric will be more stable to write on with the freezer paper. Use Micron Pigma pens for signatures, then heat set them.
