Default Suggestions For Blocks?

I'm looking for suggestions for blocks in a sampler quilt. Our former neighbor has just been diagnosed with a brain tumor and after surgery, she will need several radiation treatments to reduce the part of the mass that they cannot remove. I sent a message to one of her daughters to find our her favorite colors and Bible verse for a comfort quilt, but her daughter had no suggestions, so I thought I might do a lap sized sampler quilt in warm colors (perhaps cream and cranberry?) and pick blocks that might have meaning to her.

So, here's the info I have. She's a homeschooling mother of 11 and a very sweet, woman. She's a Christian and grew up on a farm (wasn't there a block titled, "Farmer's Daughter"?) and is now living on a farm (or a block titled, "Farmer's Wife"?). I was thinking of doing a block for each of her children and then one for her and then I was thinking of doing a quilt with just her interests. Any suggestions for blocks that would go well with this quilt?
