Brown Holly Hobbie Bag


This was my 10th Holly Hobbie, done in July 2009. I wanted another bag, so my frinend Ttenzzang quilted this into a bag for me. I carried this bag to church this past sunday and I heard lots of nice comments.

Two Cushions



I stitched this red Dresden Plade in Feb, 2008. Design is originally Blue & White, but I changed the colours to Red & White, and this version turned out great.



Original Blue & White version, done in Sep, 2004.



Second one is an initial "H", which was done in May, 2008. I have made these into cushions for my sister. Special thanks to Ttenzzang in korea.

Back Home

I'm still here, but it's been a rough time for me the past six months. I thought I would only be away for a couple of months. In March I went to Korea to have an operation for liver cancer. The operation took about 6 hours on April 6, and it was successful. My daughter came to Korea to take care of me for two weeks, during my main recovery time. I was in the Hospital for a month, and stayed at my youngest brother's house for rest of the time. For five months after surgery, on September 7, I came back to my home in Canada. I still feel a little pain from the surgery, and it's still hard to adjust to the 13 hours time difference, but I'm happy to be back with my family and my friends.
These two towels I completed just before I left Korea, for my youngest brother for thanks.
