The Baby Twins Gift Project

[anewdayhascome]

but we are talking about the card Belle and I think that it was also agreed that those lyrics would be like intro to the wishes:) whereas, on the quilts it's indeed true that it will be written only "welcome.... "

[Frida]

^^I don't think they are doing that. They are just putting the welcome to the world little guy on each quilt.n Everyone agreed it would be better.

 

Correct.

 

 

Ashley is working on the letter, feel free to post suggestions as to what it should say (no quotes, but "our words to Celine". A little back story how the project came about, our well wishes etc... But again, there will be one letter from the whole group, not one from each of us)

 

 

 

 

And I should repeat this because a couple of people have missed it: I'm afraid it's too late to participate

[wunderbarCéline]

Ashley, please let me know if you got my signature.

[ashleylovesceline]

Here is the final list of signatures that I received: Bellamy, Bobby, Claudette, Elisa, Jacqui, Jasmin, Jenni, Kerry, Leah, Lindsey, Marcin, Petra, and Suvi. If you sent one to me and your name is not on this list, please do let me know.

 

I promise I will post what I have so far for our message inside very soon... I have a lot going on.

 

Thanks for all you have been doing, Frida and Ashley!

Aww, thank you. Frida really deserves the credit though, my part is very small!

[celinefan5]

Well from what I've seen so far the baby blankets and WONDERFUL! I knew they would turn out lovely but this is just perfect! What talent and hard work and of course lots of love went into this! I can't wait till Celine receives this! x

[ladylindsey]

It still cracks me up that we now have to make TWO. We were all so about the first pregnancy and we had this blanket that we didn't know what to do with and then WHAM now you have to make one=two hahaha. Only Céline could pull off a double miracle, eh? haha

Ashley, I opted for the generic signature because I couldn't figure out my scanner.

Thanks,

Cindy DiLeo

[nuts2you]

Ashely could u also add me to the list..

[ImACelineDionFan]

How are things coming along, Frida?

[ashleylovesceline]

Ashely could u also add me to the list..

Those are just the hand written signatures I received, not the whole list of participants.

[Frida]

Names are being embroidered as I type this Ran out of embroidery thread (again) the other day, got more this afternoon...

[Shamrock_1982]

Dam I forgot about this project...

 

Frida you are amazing!

Haha, I know!

[ashleylovesceline]

Hey, everyone! Here's our final message that will go inside the card. Frida and I revised it a bit this week and are both happy with it, let us know what you think! It's short, so all of the signatures will fit, while still expressing our love!

 

Dearest Céline,

 

Your fans from all corners of the world chose pieces of fabric sending them with love to be made into a quilt for you. Soon after, we heard the incredible news that you were to be blessed with twins, so the process began to make not one but two quilts. They were created with all of our best wishes for your two new arrivals from all of your fans around the world. We prayed with you, and now we are rejoicing with you! Words cannot express how overjoyed all of us are for you and your lovely family!

 

And then there were 5...

 

"The world thought I had it all, but I was waiting for you…"

 

Love always,

Your Friends in the

Céline Dion Forum

 

We're not sure about the "The world thought I had it all, but I was waiting for you…", but I was going to see if there was somewhere I could put in it in the card, inside. It may or may not work.

[anewdayhascome]

The wishes are lovely! I think that the quote suits them really welll. I guess that this is the best part of the lyrics that could be chosen (along with We were waiting for so long, for a miracle to come, a new day has come) . I think that it's cohesive, short but meaningful. Nothing to erase, nothing to add. Great job!

What do you mean by "and then there were 5" - I understand it up to the point...

[Julia]

Yes, I got: Lindsey, Bellamy, Kerry, and Marcin all this week.

 

Bellamy: I only got the one PM from you a couple days ago. I like yours!

 

Thanks, guys. Sorry I'm not responding very quickly, it's been a crazy month.

 

Again, any suggestions for the message from us inside are welcome.

 

 

I am send you - 2 messages. I very much look forward to hearing.

I'm sorry Julia, I didn't get your message in time before Frida and I finalized the letter.

Five in the family.

 

I think the final message is perfect! And the quote suits well, too.

Amazing! I think that it excellent! very much was pleasant to me. It should touch necessarily heart Celine

[nuts2you]

Frida, how is this coming along, any pictures yet, or have u been that busy with this Project?

[Frida]

Nothing to show right now, still got hours and hours and hours left of these timy little threads/stitches that needs to be cut

[ashleylovesceline]

The card is finally finished!!

 

I tried to make the front resemble a quilt, so I cut out 15 squares and glued them together to look like a quilt. You can't really tell from the photo, but the front shimmers a bit, too. I hope all of you are happy with it!

 

I have to make the envelope pretty and then I'll be sending it off to Frida as soon as I can.

[Claudette]

Ashley it looks awsome! Thanks again for doing this!

[Davey84]

that looks lovely!

[anewdayhascome]

It's extraordinary! you did such an amazing job! Wow....

Shouldn't we begin thinking how to deliver it? I mean, we have to be sure she gets it as it's so unusual and sweet! Imagine Celine talking about it in some interview!

[Frida]

You have done a WONDERFUL job Ashley, thank you so much! I'm gonna work on the quilts some more tonight, and we'll soooon be able to put it all together... Edited October 6, 2010 at 01:30 PM by Frida

[CynthiaTDL]

Frida and Ashley your are so talented. Thank you for allowing us to be part of this wonderful and touching project Edited October 6, 2010 at 04:29 PM by CynthiaTDL

[Bellamy]

Lovely. I'm so glad I use a handwriting font instead of my own handwriting, or it would destroy the whole card.
