I don't think that is weird. I like the idea, kinda represents who you are.

I love that idea. How cool.

Love the personal touches..and the "proud parents of. Dh and I have decided to preplan as well, it is hard enough for children to have to deal with the loss and plan as well. Good thinking.

I think it is great. My hubby and I are going to do the same. Don't know what we are going to put on ours yet, though you have given me something to think about. He is retired Army.

My Uncle and Aunt have a Turkey and a quilt block on their stone, He raised turkeys all his life and she loved to quilt.

The funniest tombstone I ever saw said "I told you I was sick"

It sounds like a good idea to do..it will save your children the task. I love the idea of the sewing machine. I have seen flowers etc on stones why not a sewing machine? Maybe even a quilt block? Years from now others will look on it and smile. Tell your DH thanks for his service being a marine and protecting us!! crafty_linda_b

I agree. I like the idea of seeing something personal on the headstone, other than names and dates.

Not at all. It's a wonderful idea.
We had a guitar put on my brother's.

I think it's a perfect idea. I may just do that, too! LOL.
