East meets West - In the fall of 2006, I went to Taiwan courtesy of AYUSA, the exchange student organization I work for. I stayed with a host family for a week. They gave me many gifts, including a set of wood carvings made from camphor wood. The Chinese characters say "Good Luck all Year Long". When I got home, I photographed the wood carvings, traced the characters and the circle they were in onto Wonder Under (I even remembered to reverse the characters!!) and fused them to the background fabric. I machine quilted leaves around the circles.
