Yummy Sushi! Yoga Mat Backpack

My youngest son, Nathan, is all about fitness!! He originally decided to take Pilates because "there's hot chicks in that class"... (so maybe he's not ALL about fitness LOL)... but now he really loves Pilates!!

So, I found this cool pattern for a backpack for his yoga mat.... and he also really loves sushi, so this is perfect fabric for him!

When I told him that I'd made him a pack for his yoga mat and then he saw the picture he said, "Whew!! I was afraid it was going to be 'girly'!"

Oh! I Am Very Excited!! :)

I met with Mary Breshike this afternoon. Mary is a "local" artist (i.e., she's an American living in Okinawa) whose pastels wonderfully depict this beautiful place. She will be creating a piece of art that we'll use for the logo and advertising... Our meeting today was to discuss what she was thinking and how that fit with what I wanted... it couldn't be more perfect! Her plans have captured an idea that will be a wonderful first impression for people... I can't wait to see the picture come to life!! You can take a look at some of Mary's work...
