One Hundred Good Wishes Quilt


Yesterday referrals came to families with LID's through November 1, 2005. I'm hoping things speed up this coming year, but I am doubtful. I'm trying not to listen to too many adoption rumors out there because it can be a bit overwhelming. But....pictures of the new babies are JUST SOOOOO ADORABLE! That keeps me motivated. My DTC group is doing a 100 Good Wishes Quilt swap. It's a Chinese custom to send an expectant mother a quilt swatch with a wish for the child on it. I'm hoping to sew a small quilt for Elizabeth's bed with the fabric squares and add the wishes to her scrapbook. I hope I can get 100 wishes!! Family and friends if you are reading this and want to send a wish for Elizabeth, make the quilt square 8"x8" and then write a wish for her on a notecard with a little 1"x1" swatch of the same fabric attached to it. Here is a cool website in which you can see what one of the finished quilts look like. Of course mine won't be nearly this nice. http://www.originalquilts.com/100_good_wishes_quilts.htm Oh yes, also my secret buddy sent me the cutest little ladybug books for Elizabeth last month! Thank you so much!
