I made a quilt for guest to sign at my daughter's wedding. I used the Bridal Bouquet block. I made all the blocks and then put the blocks together in strips. I asked someone to oversee the signing. That person did not understand what I wanted, nor did the guest. The people all wrote messages to the bride and groom. Years later it is nice to look back at the messages so that was not a real negetive. However, that made it more difficult for me to put the strips together and quilt. It doesn't matter if you do blocks, strips or the whote quilt. Just make sure you communicate what you want the end results to be.
