It's a cloudy day in Japan, but a nice temperature. I'm now working with the last school papers, I feel relieved everything is almost finished. I'm having more time to enjoy my family and going to places where I can take nice pictures. Last night, I tried to take pictures of fireflies, with no success... I miss you all. Love, Yoriko

Wow! What a find. Oh go ahead and buy some more. You stash isn't over whelming yet. :) Miss ya.

Dear Cuties, thank you so much for your lovely comments! I apologize I didnt answer each one of them as I wanted to. Love and miss you all. Yoriko

Are you sure that all these fa brics only cost $1 ??? I would buy the whole store empty and send it home. Nice surprise when I come home :). Glad you have some time now to spend with the family. Have a safe trip home again Yoriko.

lucky you

São lindos os teus tecidos! Que bela compra fizeste! Espero que aproveites ao máximo os teus entes queridos. Sinto imenso a tua falta. Um abraço

Yoriko, I'm so happy to hear about you again. Enjoy your family and take a lot of pictures of them and from the places you go. May God always bless you. Ahhh! So beautiful fabrics, i like the black one.****

Do what we do. Mail it home. I don't know what postage is like there, but when we travel we mail packages home so we don't have to bring it on the flight. Works great.

Oh your pink prints are so great ...I have always wanted to make aquilt with the pink or blue asian prints. We have these Petiuna Pickbottom bags and they are so cute...lucky maybe someday I'l get to go shopping there...Fun to dream!!!

Yoriko,

I miss fireflies. I grew up in Indiana where we had them nightly. I live in Western Nebraska...not one firefly...ever. Hope you had a wonderful trip to visit family. Love the fabrics.

Mona

What a great buy! The are beautiful.

Your fabric is beautiful. You will be able to make lovely things with it. We are anxious for you to show in the projects section. We miss you too. Hugs for you

Beautiful fabrics, Yoriko....buy a "fat" suit and stuff yourself with fabrics and ship for FREE!!!!! hahahaha....I love the beautiful fabrics and my hands are itching to touch them.;)

Your fabrics are beautiful. Wish I was with you along with a few empty suitcases. Enjoy your stay and time with your family.

WOW! WHAT A DEAL! Great fabrics. Thanks for sharing them.

I wonder what the shipping cost would be to send some to the 'States:-)

Just love the fabrics! I'm so glad you're having time to spend with family, please take care of yourself & those you love. Hugs, Marji

Beautiful fabrics - enjoy your picture taking time and most of all the family time. We miss you. *4U

those will be fun to work with..wish I got a good deal like that one...

So good to hear you! Enjoy the family, they grow too fast! I've never had any luck taking firefly pictures either! Our Smokey Mountains have a 2 week period at a certain part of the park where the fireflies blink off and on together! It's something. Gotta walk a bit up to see if, but worth it. LOVE your fabric! What a deal!!

Yoriko, my hubby and I are going to japan for our 3rd time in August can you give me some tips as to where to go for the cheap fabric. I went to several fabric shops when there last time in various towns like Himeji, Nagoya, Kyoto and osaka but all was very expensive, especially all the kimono fabrics stores, any hints would be great, Cheers Ruth

Have you thought of mailing them back to you? I did this when I visited Hawaii.. Much cheaper, too.

Awww....LOVELY fabric...many BLESSINGS Yoriko with your family ;D *2U

Yoriko, did you think to mail some things back to yourself?
My SIL sent four huge (3' x 3') boxes of her possessions back to Australia from China and it only cost her $10 AUD.
If it was me, I'd mail my clothes back and fill my suitcases with material. LOLOLOLOL!!!!! Especially if they're all as gorgeous as the ones in your photo.

Hope you are making the most of your time with your family, Heaven knows how long it will be before you see them all again. Thinking of you dear friend.
Hugs n much love, Meganne

LQQKs like you got some beautiful silk??!! wrap them in plastic and fill your shoes (in the suitcase) that way you can bring more home:)

Thanks Yoriko! We are like little kids in a candy store and we are all officially "drooling" LOL..... good for you - enjoy - enjoy!!! Have a great time with your family and we will look forward to having you home soon!!* Laura

the pinks are to die for - I think I'd be like lbrow and ship em home to myself. What fun when you get home and get a pkg full of fabrics! wheeeeee, have lots and lots of fun. My hubbys dream is to one day be able to go to Japan (sigh) me I won't leave the borders of my great u.s.

Oh Gee Karen, what you could be missing out on.

I'm so grateful I had the chance to leave my beautiful Australia and travel. It made me much more patriotic and grateful to live in our wonderful country.
But it also gave me so much to talk about and compare and dream of, and I met so many wonderful people on my trips and tasted so many different phenomenal foods and saw such awesome sites.
If i ever won the lottery I would travel again but I'd make sure I travelled around my home country too.
Hugs n roses, Meganne

very nice indeed. Glad you are well and enjoying family. Take care. Lisa

What beautiful fabrics. Glad to see you having time with your family. We miss you here & look forward to having you back soon.

Must go. Rugby League "State of Origin" football about to start. Go Queensland!!!!!

Hello Yoriko. The fabric is gorgeous. You could always buy another suitcase. (Smile) Have a wonderful time with your family. ***

lovely Yoriko, thanks for showing us, such lovely colours, and hope you are having fun with your family, take care

Wow Yoriko, what beautiful fabric....the pinks are so nice.....Well pleased to hear that you will now have more time to catch up with your family. Looking forward to you coming home....
hugs Michele

Very pretty fabrics.

Dear Yoriko,
It.s good that you are able to relax a little now. The fabrics are lovely! As you speak of fireflies, I think of your beautiful dragonfly alphabet. Thank you for your art! You are missed here, also.
Love,
Jacqueline

nice..............*4u all

Beautiful fabrics !!! I miss you too Yoriko. Hugs to you *

and u r sorely missed here on cutes Yoriko. Can u not ship the material to yourself here n the states? that's what I did when I was n Central America. everything was so cheap I just mailed myself several large boxes. Glad u r enjoying yourself with fmly. *4U

i like the plain colors fabrics! but they are unique because they have some sorts of "prints" or effects on them too. u didnt buy those shrink clothes plastic bag to shrink down yr clothes in luggage?

Yoriko, what a lovely collection of fabric, wish I could get a bargain like that, thanks for sharing with us all. Glad to hear that you are almost done with the paperwork, and can then spend more time with your family. God Bless. Hugs Yvonne

Glad to hear from you! We all miss you! The material is beautiful! I know it is hard but It is good that it is almost finished and you can have some time to spend with your family. You may find out that it is for the best after all. I know it will be alot easier on you living in Australia and trying to keep a business going in another country. In the end we usually find out that things happen for the best. We sure will be glad to have you back home and among us again but hope you enjoy every moment you spend with your family. In the end it is family that really counts! Have a safe trip! Linda in Ga. USA

Thanks for the picture of the fabrics Yoriko. Glad to see you are nearly all finalised with everything. Hope you get to spend more time with the family. Look forward to hearing from you soon.

Love and blessings Chris - you have a PM too!

Yoriko - you're obviously a "Pink" girl. I'm a blue person. Love Chris

Gorgeous fabrics anyway you look at them.

by manami 03 Jun 2009

Thank you, Libbie and Chris! It seems we change some 'tastes' time from time. I was a blue girl, but after my granddaughters come along, I became a pink one :) Love,Yoriko
