In the past couple of weeks we've had two friends surprise us with really cute quilts they made for Emma. The first one is from a friend in our old ward, Lorana Dedman. She is the queen of crafts and handmade items and made a pink quilt with little Winnie the Poohs on it (they don't show up so well in the photo). The second quilt is from my friend Larae Thomas (I taught Larae's daughter piano for a few years, then Larae herself, and now we get together for an organ lesson every couple of months.) This quilt is the first one Larae has ever made (hmmm..could've fooled me).I'm also just about finished collecting fabric squares and wishes for Emma's 100 Good Wishes Quilt. (Click here to learn more about them http://www.originalquilts.com/100_good_wishes_quilts.htm) This has been an extremely fun project. My sister Barbie's friend is going to be the quiltmaker, but it has been a blast collecting all the squares and wishes. Everyone's so creative.

I can't wait to see how the quilt turns out. It's fun just looking at the book with the little sample squares. I'm glad you have a blog too. I've been wondering when you'd find out more about Emma, and now I can just check your blog for the updates.
I'm sending you a Chinese Symbol for "To listen" by e-mail. If I can figure out how to make it into a block for your quilt, I will
Dad
