Help with signature wedding quilt please...
I am going to have my guest sign pre cut quilt squares for my wedding quilt. The problem is that I have tried to iron the square to freezer paper and wax paper but they wont stick.. Any suggestions on a backing so that my guest can sign them easier?? Wedding is June 2. Thanks

You might try a different white fabric.

Are you using Reynolds freezer paper? I have never had a problem sticking the waxy side of it to fabric.
When I did this, I ironed the freezer paper onto the back of the yardage before cutting squares. Much easier than cutting squares first.
Instead of just drawing lines 1/4" from the edge (to keep people from extending their signatures into the seamline), I would experiment with adding blue painter's tape along the edges -- maybe the inch-wide version. This would likely keep extravagant signatures within the lines!
