Blog problem
Several readers have been having problems accessing my blog. I really don’t know what’s causing it as other people don’t seem to have it. I’ve tried cleaning up the codes to see if that might help, but the problem is still there. Maybe it has got to do with old cache of my blog. So… Continue Reading
Sesame photoshoot

This is the second time Sidra had a photoshoot with them, the first one was done in Tottori, just two months after Sidra and me moved to Japan. This time, they wanted to photograph Sidra in… Continue Reading

Tonight is the second… Continue Reading

Hello! (and some non-sewing related ramblings)
I just want to say hello and welcome to my new blog address! Hope everyone is having a great holiday! Maybe you’ve noticed that the address of this blog has now changed to verypurpleperson. The blog is actually still hosted by Blogger, but I use the custom domain feature to redirect the visitors to my… Continue Reading
Happy holiday and moving time!
It’s getting nearer to the end of another year, and this blog has been chronicling my crafting life since almost the last 2 years I’ve been living in Tokyo. It’s time for a little change. So my name is Novita, and my internet personality name is verypurpleperson, but my blog address is verypurplestuffs, while the… Continue Reading
