I came across this photo taken on December 31, 2015. We had spent that day at the Forks enjoying the company of tourists and locals, and taking in the ambience of the artisan shops and buskers performing at various points in this historic area. The day was unseasonably warm, and I got the opportunity to have a photo taken beside the statue of Mahatma Ghandi outside the Canadian Museum of Human Rights. It was a poignant way to end the year and begin a new one. ❄️Wishing all my friends and family the best in 2019.❄️ ❄️🍾❤️Happy New Year! Bonne heureuse année!❤️🥂 #newyear #newyearseve #happynewyear2019 #happynewyear #🇨🇦2019 #canadianmuseumforhumanrights

The value of exceptional tools... Here, a pattern marked for a bias layout, from which I’ve changed to on-grain with this fabulous ruler from susankhalje.com. Vogue pattern 2051. #couture #sewing #voguepatterns #V2051 #rtwfast2018
