The setting blocks are written upon with fabric pens.

I have heat-set the signatures. Do I need to do anything else before I sew them into the quilt?

I will be grateful for any other tips and warnings regarding the fabric pen signatures, that I may not know to ask.

Nope, once heat set you are good to go :D:D:D

whew... thank you anna. Can't wait to put this together!!!
