Default What would you add to a memory quilt. Tips and tricks?

I have a daughter that is turning 20 this year. She has had a very rough teen years and I was thinking that I would love to make her a memory quilt of all her accomplishments and activities that she has had through that last 2o years. Here are my ideas ;

1. Baby picture
2. Living in Hawaii
3. She was on the swimming team
4. volleyball team
5. 2 High Schools
6. Photography
7. Journalism
8. Pics of her best friends
9. Pic of her and her boyfriend.. ( not to happy about this one but )
10. A Bible verse.

Of course I have never done anything like this before. So would love your input on how to accomplish this.

I think I will start with the pics and go from there. Her birthday is not till June so i should have time to make it. I want it to be a completely surprise. Maybe i do need an embroider machine.
