anniversary fun

Celebrating 30 years of marriage with a trip to NYC!

 We had a very nice lunch at Mario's place....Eataly. Also a fun place to shop.

 Exciting to see RENT again. This time from the second row.We cried along with the cast.

 This building kind of makes me dizzy. It looks as though it could just blow over with a stiff wind.

 And our worst fear happened when we headed to Times Square to dine at Bubba Gump's. Yep, ran right into the protestors. We didn't realize until it was too late.
It was scary but we made it thru and was able to exit thru the rear of the restaurant.

A cool create sign at the theatre.

Looking forward to the next 30!

weekend update

Our Quilt show started yesterday and runs thru today.
The donation quilt in my last post had a couple bids and sold.
I was thrilled!

 Also sold my bags at the Country Store at the show.

I also put some of my angel dolls in for sale.
A very nice show.
A joint effort with three guilds.

I am off to tidy up the studio and start some new projects.

Have a great weekend!

way behind....

I didn't realize that it had been so long since my last post.
Time is flying by!
This is a snippet of my donation quilt for the up coming quilt show.

I used a different technique. I had all the squares finished and using random machine stitches I sewed them onto a black/gray fabric panel. It's wack-a-do and I love it. I hope someone else likes it too and bids on it. If not I'll be happy to have it back.
