3. Back the signature are of the fabric with a piece of ironed on freezer paper (from Reynold's, in the grocery store); This stabilizes the area for the pen, and can be peeled off after the blocks are signed.
4. Press the signature blocks with a dry iron before you wash the finished quilt.

A friend of mine did this and she put a line on the freezer paper so the person writing had a straight line to follow when signing the name. It could be seen through the fabric and then the freezer paper peels off.
