August, my friends! It was a very full month for us in the Bay, since we were actually around for the whole month, minus one road trip up to Davis, which I’ve still included in the Bay Area recap below. First, a little sewing project for some dear friends of mine! This was a pattern…
Happy birthday to me! As you may know, I have a standing tradition of throwing myself a birthday party to kick off each year. Every time, I ask myself what the specific purpose of my gathering might be, and this time I decided to have an all-day craft day with our closest friends. In the…
May recap! It was quite the month, with two trips up to Healdsburg and another through Sonoma up to Mendocino County, celebrating 15 years in business as Anna Wu Photography, and even my own engagement!

We each had shibori (indigo) dye kits and dyed quilt squares, which were then mailed back to me so I could create a community-made quilt, like a warm hug from…
June! The month in which everything returned, all at once. We got to start the month with our first in-person Accountability meeting since the beginning of 2020! What an incredible feeling.
