100 Good Wish Quilt......For my GIRL!!!

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.

Well what a surpirse when I opened this envelope!!!!!! All these squares are "hand made" and are absolutley beautiful. I cant stop looking at them. I'm not sure who actually made them, either Auntie Judy, Sandy or Lisa.
