NYC friends and fabric

I'm just back home after a fun weekend in New York City, where I met Victoria from Bumble Beans and 15 minute play. We hung out together at City Quilter and then had a little private show and tell at her home.

Victoria is at left with my traveling and non-quilting friend Gaynette. I have to say that although Victoria's quilts look great on her blog, they look fabulous in real.

Here's my goodies from City Quilter. The three text prints at the right are going into my B birthday quilt.

I also bought a Kaffe-like scarf from a street vendor and a yard of embroidered braid from a shop in the Garment District. I could have spent my whole weekend in that neighbourhood, but my friend managed to tear me away for a Broadway show, some sightseeing, and a stroll in Central Park.
