Square & Wish #18 - Fredrick, Maryland


I received this beautiful and funka-delic quilt square in the mail today from the Keller family. It's so wild and reminds me of high school a bit. I love the colors - they make me think that I should be on the beach in the Caribbean somewhere.

This is what was written on their wish card:

This Gospel was read at our wedding. It has significant meaning to us, particularly during this miraculous journey of love. With our best wishes for a life of joy and blessing. The Kellers

Luke 11:9-10
"And I tell you, ask, and it will be given you;
seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be
opened to you. For everyone who asks
receives, and he who seeks finds, and to
him who knocks it will be opened."

Square & Wish #17 - Stuart, Florida


The Shpiruk's sent this extremely bold Asian fabric with dragons on it. Very, very cool!

The wish card read:

The best and most
Beautiful Things
cannot be seen or even
touched
They must be felt with the
Heart - Helen Keller

Thank you for the quilt square!

Square & Wish #16 - Goodyear, Arizona


This wish and square came from Beth & Chris Calkins through CHI's quilt square exchange group. I was so delighted to see the bright fabric and the beautiful floral print.

Their wish read this:

Dearest,
We wish you a life filled with
great love, laughter, wonder,
adventure and delight as you
grow with your forever family!

Thank you so much Beth & Chris!!

Square & Wish #15 - Clovis/Cannon AFB, New Mexico


My dear friend Jen sent us this awesome quilt square. Jen obviously knows me really well. I love anything to do with turtles & frogs & crabs. I just think they're all so cute so this very bright fabric with turtles all over it was so fitting. I am really digging these brightly colored squares people are sending me.

Jen & Jay's wish was:

May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!

Lots of Love,
Jen & Jay

Square & Wish #13 - Brentwood, Tennessee


We received square #13 for Emilija's quilt on Friday from the Adams Family. It's a very cute piece of Winnie the Pooh fabric.

Their wish was this:

Reach for the moon and you'll land among the stars.


Thanks so much Adams Family for the square and the wish!

Square & Wish #12 - Stuart, Florida


We received this quilt square from the Rogers family. I loved the vivid colors of this fabric.

Their wish for Emilija was a quote from a scripture in the bible:

"How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God!" 1 John 3:1


Thanks so very much for the quilt square!
