Hello,
At my daughter's baby shower, we had all the guests sign "siggy" squares that I made. After the shower, I sewed the squares together. I did try a few layouts on a design board. But settled on one that seemed to work well. I also had some HST left over and made a pillow out of those. My daughter asked that a pocket be sewn on the back for displaying. My daughter now has the blanket hanging on the wall of my granddaughter's bedroom. I have attached copies of both. Hope this is helpful. Good luck and have fun!
Karen

I have some blocks that look a great deal like yours, they were made by my grandmother; I took them to a certified quilt appraiser and she advised me to not make them into a quilt, but instead to have them framed behind archival glass and to be sure the ones not framed were stored in archival tissue paper.
