Mia's 111th Quilt Square: Lake Wylie, South Carolina

This is from Scott and Natalie Ward of Lake Wylie, South Carolina. Natalie contacted me after finding this quilt blog. She commented on how much she liked the way I documented all of these wonderful squares and wishes for Mia. They're adopting a daughter from China and were logged in 9-8-06. Natalie is just starting on the quilt square collecting. She asked if she could reference this blog as an example when she sent out her requests. Of course, I told her to go for it. I remember when I first started this and tried to explain it to others that had never heard of the idea before. It was so much easier to show them instead of explaining it. So I borrowed other blogs, too. She sent the sweetest letter thanking me. You're very welcome, Natalie.

Her card reads "Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential and fight for your dreams. You are the center of your universe and you can make anything happen." Their wish for Mia is to "reach her full potential in life. Have fun and enjoy even the smallest things."

Thanks Scott and Natalie!
