5,000th Post and Throwback Thursday

Time Flies! This is my 5,000th post on this blog. I think that is a good reason to do a Throwback Thursday post. (You can see the full post by clicking on the year).

2024  A year ago was a Work In Progress Wednesday post and I was working on the Japanese Pattern 17, the Christmas afghan, and the Clover Cutter Cover.

2023  on Monday Morning Star Count, I was working on a hexagon project.

2022  I wrote about Yakuza (Japanese Mafia) membership decreasing.

2021 I discussed the ages of Olympic athletes.

2020 The post was a Friday Finish.

2019 was a “Finish it in 2019” post. I had both finishes and progress to report on.

2018 was about a trip I had taken to Ueda in Nagano.

2017 This post was week 14 of the first temperature quilt.

2016 I reported on the Shimizu Minato Festival.

2015 I explained about another celebration in Japan, Tanabata.

2014 I left on a big trip to the UK that day, and wrote about the trip and posted a picture of an ornament I finished.

2013 I was participating in Take a Stitch Tuesday and posted about that week’s stitch.

2012  My neighbor and I stitched together and she finished her cross stitch kitchen towels.

Thank you for looking back on this date with me!
