Default Tips for a Signature Quilt

My daughter's wedding was amazing and thanks to all the helpful tips I received from this website for constructing a signature quilt, we will have a really great reminder of that day. The following tips are ones I learned from here and are critical Here they are:

1 You really need to have someone manning the guests signing the quilt at all times. Our markers were the type that needed the cap to be twisted off and someone didn't and permanent ink went flying.

2 I had suggested that maybe I should make the quilt ahead of time and have guests sign it at wedding. That idea really got shot down and its a good thing it did. That would have been just awful. Mistakes do happen and it would have been permanent. One guest wrote something he thought was just funny but really wasn't and it would have been permanent on the quilt.

3 Do it! It really is a great memento of the day and each signature block is so unique and wonderful. Most went beyond just a signature and it really will be a great quilt.
