Custom Guest Book Quilt Kit  Wedding Guestbook Alternative - Signature Quilt Kit for Special Event (customized center block sold separately)
A guestbook quilt can be a unique and creative way to commemorate a special event or occasion such as a Wedding, Anniversary, Birthday, Baby Shower, Retirement and more. A Guest Book Quilt is a great alternative for your guests to write their well wishes to the “Guest(s) of Honor”!  Then handcrafted and stitched together to create a beautiful keepsake quilt filled with well wishes and memories. 
This listing is for the KIT only *. This is NOT a finished quilt.
Construction of the kit after the event is an additional price.
Here's a general guide on how the process will work:
1. Selecting the Quantity of Squares:
You will be able to select the quantity of square when placing your order in increments of 25.  
Tip:  Through experience we have discovered that most people will sign one square to represent a couple or family. So, even though you may have 100 guests, most likely, only 50-60 squares will be signed.
2.  Select Fabric Squares:
We have a good selection of fabrics to choose from. Please select one or two or three of your favorites.  
Keep in mind that other colored or patterned fabrics can be added when the quilt is constructed. 
Choose the signature square fabrics that will go best with your color preferences. For instance, if you want your finished quilt to be burgundy, navy and white, then you will want to choose the whites for your guests to sign. After the event, the darker colors can be added and arranged with the white signature squares to compliment the final layout of the quilt. (See images on this listing for fabric selections/options).
 
The fabric squares are prepared specifically so the fabrics are stable and easy to write on with the special fabric maker.
3.  The Kit includes Fabric Markers:
The Kit will include special textile markers to place on the table near the fabric squares.
Ensure that these are the only markers used by your guests as others may not be suitable for fabric and will wash out.

4.  Instructions for your Guests:
The Kit includes a table sign with the instructions visible for your guests.
This can be displayed in a designated area where your guests will sign or write on the fabric squares.
(Please see listing images)
5.  After the Event (Optional)
Collect the Fabric Squares and return to Sweet on Stitches to have your quilt finished.
As a suggestion, have a designated person collect the signed fabric squares throughout the event.
The kit includes a printed shipping label for convenience. 
6.  Quilt Assembly:
We understand the sentimental value of having a family member or friend finishing your quilt.  Please let us know if we can help in any way.  If you choose for us to finish your quilt, we will work closely with you to create a very special keepsake quilt.

7.  Customizing a Center Block
We have many styles and designs to choose from.  Let us know your preferences and wording and we can set up a proof for approval.  
If you are planning on returning the squares to us for assembly, then we can create center block when we start the construction.  If you are having a family member or friend, make the quilt, then we can include it in the kit. (sold separately)
8.  Once the quilt is complete, you can display it at home, use it as a throw, or give it as a meaningful gift.

***Remember to choose materials and colors that align with the theme of the event.  Please consider Sweet on stitches for the construction of your quilt. 
We hope you enjoy the process of creating a beautiful keepsake filled with memories from your special occasion!
