SQUARE #14

Dragonflies represent new light and joy.
Just as you will bring new light
and joy into your parents lives.
Always remember... Life is never quite the way it appears,
but is always filled with light and joy.
We hope you always see the light and joy of life.
Love always,
Laurie, Eddie, Britney, Aubrey, Caleb, and Cameron

This wish card and square came from my cousin Laurie, her husband Eddie and their children. It is so beautiful! Both Laurie's and her mom's (Jocey's) wishes bring tears to my eyes. We want to thank you so much!

SQUARE #13

Your Parents prayed each night and day,
For a light of love to come their way.
Here you are a shining star,
Whose light will never fade away.
Welcome to the family
Hugs and Kisses
Jocey Ray & Family

My Aunt Jocey, Uncle Ray, and Family gave us this great square when we were home visiting for Thanksgiving. The square is beautiful as are the sentiments that are on the card. And they are ABSOLUTELY TRUE! Thank you all so much!

SQUARE #12

Great Grammy is wishing you
a happy time with your doggy
I know you'll love him too
because Mummy and Daddy do.

This square is another from my Grammy Brodie. It is so sweet that she thought to send one about our dog! Thank you Grammy!

SQUARE #11

Great Grammy wishes

you will love all kinds of outdoor fun

playing games with Dad

and gardening with Mum.

This is another super adorable square that was sent from my Grammy Brodie. Aren't the old-fashioned kids sweet!

She sent enough material just in case we needed two squares, and after we cut the material I'll add a piece to the card so our little one will be able to look at the quilt and then look at the "wish book" and figure out who sent this piece.

Thank you so much Grammy!

SQUARE #10

Great Grammy wishes you will love to learn
and Mummy and Daddy will spend precious time
teaching you your nursery rhymes

This square is from my Grammy Brodie. It is so precious with the cute little Bo-Peeps! Thank you Grammy!

My camera's batteries died right after I took this one, so I have to recharge before I post the other adorable squares my Grammy sent. Coming soon....

SQUARE #9

Twinkle-twinkle little star

what a lucky child you are

My Prayer for You:

May you be surrounded by love all the days of your life!!!

Your Great-Great Aunt Charlotte

This fabulous bright fabric was sent by my Aunt Charlotte - my Grammy Brodie's sister hence all the "greats!" I love all the shooting stars! It is so appropriate for a wish quilt as it makes me think of wishing on all those stars. Thank you so much Aunt Charlotte! Most families aren't as lucky as ours is to have such an extended family, it means alot to have received a square from you!

SQUARE #8

In memory of Great Grammy & Papa Cloutier and Great Aunt Dot
"Forget them not!"

This a beautiful memorial square sent from Jean and Ernie. Thanks again- Lot's of Love!

I love this fabric! Of course I have been known to have a bit of a frog fetish! But how can I resist when they are so cute? Jean and Ernie are well aware of my frog infatuation and found this super cute fabric with that in mind! Just look at the smiles on the frogs faces! I love the little logos you have been putting on all your wish cards- the cards are so beautiful! Thanks Mom and Dad C.!

SQUARE #6

I Wished for You...
Wishes do come true!

These sweet little ballerina fairies are from Mom and Dad C. Thanks again for the duplicate "just in case" squares and cards!

SQUARE #5

You are my "Perfect" Little Lady Bug.

You crawled right into my heart.

--I love You--


This square is another (identical just in case set) from the GIT's (Grandparents-in-training). Thanks Mom and Dad C.! Aren't the ladybugs adorable! Ladybugs are a goodluck symbol in China and are supposed to be especially lucky for adoptions!

SQUARE #4

"An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but never break.-Ancient Chinese Belief"

You Complete Our Family
I Love You

This square was sent from the GIT Cloutiers. Thanks Mom and Dad C! I wish I knew what the symbols on the square mean- I'm going to have to look them up! ( I hope I didn't photo it upside down!) The card is beautiful. I love those precious little footprint cutouts! Thanks again for the 2 matching pieces of material (just in case.)

SQUARE #3

"You are always in my heart and I love you very much.

You'll make wonderful parents."
Love, Gram S.
XOXOX

This beautiful square in my two favorite colors- bright green and bright red- was sent from Gram Stecchi. Gram, thank you so much for the heartfelt sentiment, we love you too! And again thanks for the 2 matching squares - just in case!

SQUARE #2

"You are my Forever Princess And I Love You Like Crazy Cakes!"
Grammy & Grampy C
-XOX-

Jean and Ernie went out fabric shopping for a quilt square and couldn't resist getting more than one! This is their favorite of the fabrics they found. Jean said they were inspired by us becoming a "forever family!" And thank you for sending the 2 sets of each material. I think you're more convinced that we will actually get twins than we are. We are hoping, but the chances are slight. Maybe with all your thoughts and prayers it might actually happen!

SQUARE #1

"May you always be surrounded by a circle of love."

OUR VERY FIRST SQUARE!

We are so excited!

We just received our very first square for our 100 wishes quilt! Actually I should say "squares" as they sent us two identical ones in case we do get twins! We want to send out a great big thanks to Donna and Jim Aho. The fabric is so bright and cheerful and we love how you tied your wish in to the fabric pattern. Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!
