News

Some of you wondered about the health of my mom. She is fine and not. According to the results of her analysis, there is something wrong with her liver but she thinks it's nothing and no longer wants to continue going to the doctor. I tried to convince her but she said angrily that I must not get into her bussiness. So I decided to set aside and let herself realize her mistake. How to help someone who doesn't want help? my dad says "you shouldn't mourn someone who dies by her own fault" ....
Finally she is fine, but sometimes gets sick and it seems that is about to realize that she should go back to the doctor.
Thank you SO MUCH for your concern!! I've been very happy with your mails and messages n_n.
Algunos de ustedes se preguntaban por la salud de mi mamá. Ella está bien y no. De acuerdo a los resultados de sus analisis, hay algo malo con su hígado pero ella piensa que no es nada y ya no quiere seguir yendo al doctor. Traté de convencerla pero me contestó enojada que no me meta en sus asuntos. Así que decidí hacerme a un lado y dejarla que se dé cuenta de su error. ¿Cómo ayudar a alguien que no quiere ayuda? mi papá dice que "no debes llorar a alguien que muere por su propia culpa"...
Finalmente ella está bien, pero algunas veces recae y parece que está a punto de darse cuenta que debe regresar al doctor
MUCHAS GRACIAS por su preocupación!! Fuí muy feliz con sus mails y mensajes n_n.

My first patchwork

I just finished this patchwork furoshiki following this mairuru's tutorial. I've never did nothing with patchwork but I wanted do something and here is it.

But what is a furoshiki?
Is a square of fabric about 50-60 cms and can be used in many ways.I use it as a lunchbox and when I go to the grocery store for few things. Here an example:
Put the things you want to wrap on the furoshiki's center

Then do this


and the other side
and finally tie up the ends with double knot

Here a page with other examples.This is a great idea for use fabric instead of plastic! PLEASE try it!
Thanks Mairuru for this tutorial ^_^
Sorry if my english wasn't correct.
