I mentioned that we went to the states because on August 8 my daughter graduated with her PhD in Bioengineering from Clemson.

We were able to be there for it, and I am so grateful.

My son, Daniel was able to get some very nice photos.

Needless to say, we are very proud of her. Of COURSE.

I’m also thankful for her siblings who were able to be there for it. Abby, her sister, and husband, Zachary, made it from Virginia. Her brother, Daniel, and his wife, Jessica, came over a couple of hours from near Columbia, SC.

Daniel, Lydia, Abigail - our three youngest children :)

Her dissertation was related to their project where they are making a device to help train people who need to insert IVs for dialysis.

Thank you so much, Daniel, for sharing your photos! Love them!

Congrats to Lydia for finishing up her PhD! I hope you see it here, Lydia! We are so proud of you!

Lydia has worked for Quilted Twins, BTW - a while ago when we first started.

And now you know the rest of the story!

Thank you again, Daniel Petersen, for sharing your beautiful photography work with us.

Have a great day wherever you are reading this!

Quilted Twins has gotten in some very nice science related fabrics - here are four. You can click on them and it will take you to the fabrics on the site.
