    Cheers,
    Maybe you might want to do something that everyone attending the wedding signs. Quilterscache has a 6" paper pieced autograph block. I have done 2 of these for wedding, using ideas and what I know about people getting married. Son was one of those and I used old fabric from his jams and hawaiian shirts. Just an idea maybe a bit quicker than a whole quilt.
    hugs :-)

    There is download partway down the page. I am doing this one for my kid's wedding. The blocks are signature blocks and would look good with gold pen on the browns. It is fun and quick.
    Maybe you'll like it.

    I like to do log cabin quilts for weddings because of the meaning.

    The dark side signifies the bad times or hard times, the light side signifies the good times and a red square in the middle signifies home and hearth. The idea is the if your family and those you love are the center of your life you can make it through the good times and the bad together.
