    the flowers are adorable. thanks for the link. :-)

    if we're going to have a common symbol it needs to work for both women and men.

    since we already have the block as a common symbol, we need to find ways to use it in pins or nametags. ;-)

    where do we find the pattern for this block? It could be done as a miniature, with a pin on the back. It could be put on the front of the shopping bag in bold colors. Both of those suggestions are gender neutral. :-D

    Could they be laminated and have a pin or clamp on them? Where do you get them?

    the block can be made out of material with fabric on the back and just use a safety pin to wear

    we each need to make our own.

    the block is made from:

    4 Half-Square Triangles
    1 Solid Square
    4 3-stripe Rail Fence patches

    as long as all 9 patches are the same size, you'll be good to go.

    you can also find a pattern here:

    you'll need to reduce it to your desired finished size.

    would the guys wear the pin blocks?

    the center of the block could have our Board name on it?
