あけましておめでとうございます！Akemash*te omedetou gozaimasu! Happy new year 😁. On January 21 the year of the tiger will come to an end. It was a year under the sign of the dynamism of the feline (growth, strength, vitality). The year of the rabbit is about to start. It should be a year of hope. This cute animal is associated with peace, longevity and prosperity 😊 I do feel that I've become stronger last year and that I'm on my way to finding peace. How did you experience last year and what do you think next year will bring you? I hope it will bring you tranquility and peace of mind🙏

While working on my new piece, I suddenly realized I managed to pierce a hole through my Japanese thimble 😅 Years of use and abuse will do that to them. Time for a new one because I've got some work to do😉 I'm using
's leather thimble and for my new project, a sashiko fabric with preprinted dots, a long sashiko needle and a thick sashiko thread.
