Finally, The Japan Trip!
So, the next few blog posts won't be focused a lot on quilting although there is some of that happening these days as well. I have been asked by many people now when I am going to post about my travel to Japan so here it is. This is going to be good for me as well as...
A Wedding
On Saturday, June 15, 2019, my oldest nephew got married. In Hope BC no less. Now for those of you reading this and don’t know where Hope BC is, it is on the mainland and it is usually NOT a destination stop, more of a passing through to somewhere else kinda place....
Playing Catch Up
Well it seems like it has been forever since I did a blog post. I finally got a newsletter out but even that was 6 weeks ago now. Time just flies by these days. So, what have I been doing these past weeks? Well as some of you know I went to Japan for 4 weeks in March...

Visiting Family
Ok, I am finally starting to feel better after being sick with a cold for over 2 weeks now! This has been really brutal. I actually spent 3 days in bed not even getting out of my pj's. I am still not over the silly thing but at least I am feeling way better than I was...
Once Upon a Star
