Tsuru for Good Luck

Next year my cousin Mari will be the chairman, and the reunion will be held in Portland, Oregon so that everyone will also be able to attend Mari's wedding. She's in the Portland Taiko group and her fiance is a jazz musician, so it could be a very musical event which I hope very much to attend. Mari is talking about sending out wedding invitations with a tsuru (Japanese origami crane) which is a symbol of good luck, longevity, and peace, so I found this drawing I did of a tsuru several years ago.

Beautiful family. I adore cranes, too and what they symbolize. Fabulous drawing. Quilt coming?
