100 Good Wishes - One Squish at a Time!

To welcome and celebrate a new life, there is a tradition in the northern part of China to make a Bai Jia Bei, or 100 Good Wishes Quilt. It is a custom to invite friends and family to contribute a patch of cloth with a wish for the baby. Part of the patch of cloth goes into the quilt for the baby, and the other part of the cloth can go into a creative memory notebook with the wish for the child. The quilt contains the luck, energy, and good wishes from all the families and friends who contribute a piece of fabric.

Squish #50


Irish Prayer

May God give you...
for every storm a rainbow, for every tear a smile,
for every care a promise, and a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends, a faithful friend to share,
for every sigh a sweet song, and an answer for each prayer.
