In January '10 we welcomed Kasumi to the family and on Monday 22nd December she flew out for home. The year has flown by and it was very sad to say goodbye.
I made this quilt and as luck would have it we all like the back as much as the front. It was not planned that way but I found the red fabric at Primitive Patchwork that screamed "Kasumi", and I had to use it. Hopefully it will remind her of her time in Melbourne and her time with us. Myrane made a lovely bag and tucked a copy of 'Masterchef' inside which is Kasumis favourite TV program. She was thrilled with both. She is a smart little cookie and I know she will do well in her life back in Japan.

This photo was taken on the beach at Venus Bay, East 2010. A gorgeous day.
For her Textiles course at school she made a reversible Kimono, one side traditional and the other modern.
Cuddles and Lucy keep wandering into her room to see if she has come back. No sign of her .... sad, long faces prevail.
