Brat - I love your idea of having the center four rows making a picture with the top and bottom encasing it. I would like to make my cousin something special. She loves Ocean City MD. Her and her husband requested that when they die, her ashes are to go to the beach, and his to the ocean; so they will connect every time the tide comes in.....her words honest!!
So my middle will be a sky with kites, curvy water, and a beach
A sun will be shining from the top - and a row of flip flops(she LOVES them) for the bottom
Oh - I am really great in making plans - and hopefuly I can pull this off.
Everyone's ideas are so personal. Love the dreams coming together.
