Quilting tomorrow


Tomorrow my quilt group meets here. Time to make a dessert and de-dog-hair the house.

At least I have a project to work on. The quilted leaves in each diamond are rather labor intensive but I like the result.

  4. Konnichiwa Julie! I've lived in Tokyo just over 4 years & am self-taught in sewing (& everything else). You have a quilt group - how truly wonderful ! Warm wishes to you from over here in Setagaya !

  5. Hi Julie... It's about time I came visiting isn't it! I loved the towel backing you've put on that one quilt. What a great idea... I've got a bunch of those towels too!

    And by the way, I read your profile and was interested to see that you graduated from Wooster. My mother (88) graduated from Wooster and all my life I was told I really should consider Wooster (I ended up in Oregon) and when my daughter who went to high school in Powell, Ohio (near Columbus) was thinking of colleges, Grandma started in again. Leiya (daughter) is going to Bowling Green in Ohio now.

    Just thought that connection was interesting. And you beat me coming to Japan in 1963! I came in 1977 and I thought I was an old timer!
