Thank you so much. My mother, now 95, made my husband and I a sampler, the center block being my grandmother's and grandfather's home where my mother grew up. She even embroidered the address on it. That little lady got me going on quilts, so much so that I wish I had listened to my mother years ago!!!!!!!! Edie

I made one for a cousin who was in a hospice. I chose block with names of places where they had lived -- "delectable mountains" because they were living in the blue mountains, Bible verses names for her fav verses, some names also have a block name. - Sunbonnet Sue - All states have block names as do many cities.
