To welcome and celebrate a new life, there is a tradition in China to make a Bai Jia Bei or "100 Good Wishes Quilt". It is a custom to invite 100 people to contribute a single square patch of cloth. The 100 patches are sewn together into a quilt that contains the luck, energy, and good wishes from all the family and friends who contributed a piece of cloth.
Ladybugs, Ladybugs!!! What perfect fabric, so colorful & soft & full of ladybugs!!! This is from my cousin Kaylee who is going into grade 12 this year. I feel so old, now that she has turned into a beautiful young woman. I remember when she was just born and holding her in my arms.....she is just as pretty now as she was then!! Thanks Kaylee and the wish is perfect!!!
