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.
This is from one of my good friends Sharon. Sharon and I have had soo many good times together. Sharon is one of those friends who would "give her shirt of her back" for you. I really treasure our friendship and I hope she will one day soon have a little "munchin" too!!!
