I am very new to quilting, but am hoping to make a very simple sampler quilt for my oldest daughter for her graduation in June (my goal is to simply have the top done-if I even start on the quilting, I'd be thrilled!!). I want to do various sizes of squares in themes that remind me of her. I am having a hard time coming up with some of the squares. Does anyone have any good ideas for Books/reading, Girl Scouts, Country Music/Guitar, and Academics? These need to be simple to construct, since I am not that skilled and, if possible, I would prefer not applique, but I think I'll need to do a few that way. I can hardly wait to hear your suggestions!
