Here's a close-up of some of the house blocks in my Advice from Home quilt.

Each block has real or nonsense advice.

Here's the whole thing. It's about 55 by 60 inches, a bit more square than I was hoping for. I'm wondering if I should take off the bottom border and add some more words, or my son's name? I'd like it to be longer so he can use it as a throw when he's a huge man.

oh please please please add your son's name! maybe your own too. try piecing it all out and then auditioning it with the borders intact. I have the feeling that might look really interesting to have that bit separate. maybe. wonderful wonderful quilt - I love it.
I love it! What a clever idea for this "Quilt Together"! I think you need to add your sons name too.
Great quilt...add the names, it makes it so special!
Brilliant. I agree - add the names.
It looks wonderful, and your son will love it! I agree with everyone - add your son's name, and maybe yours too. And the year, for posterity's sake. ;)
Why am I just now finding your site? I love your houses and I'm going to try to make my own. You're an inspiration!! Judy
I was just looking at this piece again, and it is REALLY FANTASTIC. I just love the way the houses and the words fit together.
I really like the whole idea for this quilt-so cool! Looks great too! Nice job
I just came across your blog. I love the quilt.
