Bai Jai Bei Quilt - 100 Good Wishes for our Kate

Here is the first annoucement of the name we will give to our daughter from China. We have chosen Katherine (from one of our favorite movies, Kate and Leopold). I wanted Kate, but Bart really liked the apology letter Leopold sent to Kate, starting "Dearest Katherine". Her middle name will include her given Chinese name in some way. This site is strictly to bore you with each and every quilt square I get for Kate and her 100 Good Wishes quilt. Any advice or comments are greatly appreciated.

Name:
Location: Missouri, United States

Mother and wife... Loving both roles! As you will see by these entries my family and friends are the best!

Here are the fabrics I have so far. I already posted the firsts from Grandpa Harry and Grandma Millie. Grandpa loves to hunt, fish, outdoorsy life...he calls it loafing. Grandma does too, but she also has a love for dogs. Most stray dogs in their area end up at "the farm". Which for our kids is a BIG tease...

The seconds came from the eye doctor Stone and I go to. I recently found out I have perfect 20/20 vision....I just can't relax and focus. I believe this is why I was such an angry person all my life. It makes me tired, gives me headaches, and makes me very irritable. So, not only has she fixed Stone, she is also going to fix me too! She has super powers. Her fabrics are big tear jerkers. I am glad I waited to read the "well wish" until I left her office. In case you can't read the note it says:

"I wish that you grow up to be a confident young woman, in a loving, nurturing home. The fabric I chose for your quilt came from my children's recieving blankets. I swaddled them in these when they were newborns, I hope they help keep you warm and safe. ...."
