100 Good Wishes Quilt



These are some of the "SQUISHES" we have received so far for Chloe's quilt. For those of you who do not know, we are making a traditional Chinese "100 Good Wishes Quilt" for Chloe. We are collecting 8x8 scissor cut or 7x7 rotary cut squares of pre-washed, 100% cotton fabric for a quilt for Chloe. Along with the fabric, friends and family, as well as other China adoptive parents, are sending special good wishes for Chloe that have the same pieces of the fabric attached to them. We will put these good wishes and fabric swatches in a scrapbook so that she can match the quilt squares with the wishes when she gets older. The idea is that she will have an heirloom quilt with the good wishes of family and friends to wrap around herself. If you haven't taken part in Chloe's quilt yet, there is still time. We are only about 50%of the way there. Thanks to everyone who has contributed squares and wishes "SQUISHES" to Chloe's quilt so far. Her quilt will be beautiful. If anyone out there would like to contribute a fabric square and wish or maybe trade fabric squares and wishes for your own 100 Good Wishes Quilt, please contact me at Courtisme@aol.com
