My sisters and I did this type of thing as an anniversary quilt for our parents.
Some of the things we included were significant world events that affected our family - VE Day, because Dad came home from Europe that year, for instance. The birth of a child, the year a child started school, special dates (new diamond on the 25th anniversary of their engagement) the houses each time they moved, a pic that symbolized a family joke from a particular era in their lives, It was fun thinking of events in their lives, and asking relatives for suggestions. (I guess I need to start another for them. It has been 26 years since the first - at 40 years!) I think you have a great idea. Your husband will love it. I'll bet it becomes a favorite quilt of you both. Happy quilting! :thumbup: |
What a great idea! Be sure to post a picture. :thumbup:

Heart idea I used for my bf's quilt:
I drew half a heart on a piece of paper and had him draw the other half. I cut it out and used it as a template for applique. It's wonky and I love it. It's my Pookie Heart template. I'll be using it again and again... |
favorite songs or movies from that year...or, I do like the idea of reasons you love him...
