Friday Facts... use the link on the left side of the blog window... is about the Chinese Valentine's Day, this year in July, it's called the Double Seventh Festival.
we have a ton of quilt squares but I am so anxious to see the ones from family and friends. We've really grown close to a number of friends over the last few months as they've supported us on our journey, I can't wait to see their squares and thank them for their thoughts and support.
See our new state map from quilt squares below, keep in mind we also have them from Australia, Norway, Sweden, Canada and I think a few other countries.

Lastly, a few more postcards arrived, even one all the way from Carlow, Ireland, how cool is that. We've been faithfully adding them to the postcard photo album every time we get them and I love thumbing through it and looking at the cards.
We'll have so much to share with Magpie over the coming years, it's a great feeling to know we'll be there as she discovers not only how many people supported us during this journey, but also how many different places they came from all over the country and the world.Going to China for Magpie will be the culmination of a wonderful journey... impatient, but wonderful. We've learned so much already about China, other people in the process and about ourselves, we have so much more yet to learn and so much growing to do. It's been great.
