My mom had a\nfall in the nursing home, and ended up at the ER and then the hospital, so I&#8217;ve\nspent the last few days in her hospital room. So I will need another week to\nget to the quilt photos I took at the Festival of Quilts. <br><br>\nSophie starts her senior year of high school next week, so we are rushing to\nget school supplies, school clothes, the school haircut, etc. She is prepping\nfor college applications and auditions, and is going to be a TA (teaching\nassistant) for her orchestra teacher. It is surreal for our youngest kid to be\nheaded into her last year of public education. She will be coming to Houston\nwith me this Fall, for both Market and Festival. Many of you have followed her\nstory since we adopted her at 8 months old in China, after being abandoned at 2\ndays old. She loves hanging out with quilters, and wants to go to Houston one\nmore time before college takes over her life. <br><br>\nSAQA president Lisa Walton is leading a tour <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/luanarubin\/albums\/72157704784445691\">to the\nTokyo Quilt Festival<\/a> and Japan in Jan 2020, and Sophie and I plan to hang\nout with the group for a day or two. Some of you have been asking if I will\nlead a tour to Japan again, but I don&#8217;t have anything in the works now. If you\nare interested in a Japan tour and the Tokyo Quilt Festival <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/japan-quilt-craft-tour-tokyo-quilt-festival-jan-23-feb-4-2020\/?fn=nl_20190810193500\">look\nfor links and info on this page<\/a>, and contact the tour organizer THIS WEEK\nbefore registration closes. This will be a small intimate travel group with\nlots of unique textile experiences. <br><br>\nI know many of you are prepping your kids to return to school, secretly gleeful\nbecause this means you will have MORE TIME FOR QUILTING! The extreme heat of\nthis summer is hopefully waning now, and with cooler days on the horizon, we\ncan start up those Fall and Holiday sewing projects. <br><br>\nsharing your Passion for Fabric&#8230; <br>\nLuana and Paul \n\n\n\n<\/p>\n<strong>Share Post:<\/strong><br><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5625&#038;t=Cooler%20Days%20Around%20the%20Corner&#038;s=100&#038;p&#091;url&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5625&#038;p&#091;images&#093;&#091;0&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F08%2FKFKCO4US_MD-1.jpg&#038;p&#091;title&#093;=Cooler%20Days%20Around%20the%20Corner\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5625&#038;text=Hey%20check%20this%20out\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-pinterest nolightbox\" data-provider=\"pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Pin it with Pinterest\" href=\"https:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5625&#038;media=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F08%2FKFKCO4US_MD-1.jpg&#038;description=Cooler%20Days%20Around%20the%20Corner\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"pinterest\" title=\"Pin it with Pinterest\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/pinterest.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-linkedin nolightbox\" data-provider=\"linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Linkedin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F5625&#038;title=Cooler%20Days%20Around%20the%20Corner\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"linkedin\" title=\"Share on Linkedin\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/linkedin.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week I flew back from Birmingham UK, but the rest of my week didn&#8217;t go as planned.
