I am trying to make my brother and sister- in- law Familhy quilt. So far the I 31 blocks to make. example: the block

12 inch square with Brother and sister-in-law birthdays, then I want to embroidery a heart with their wedding date in it. HOwever I will need some extra date to make it come out even rows across and down. Any suggestions would be apreciated. Glenda C. [email protected]

or several photos of them at different ages/stages of their lives.

Also, is this a special occasion quilt ... eg. presented in honour of their 50th anniversary? ... you could do a block to acknowledge the milestone.
