I took Pat to Marimekko, so she could see the store, (it's so fun) and I bought an infinity scarf, ( below) Cute right? (massively on sale) I never shop, unless I have someone to take around, and I end up buying more then anyone else..Why is that?
To top it off we saw ONCE on Broadway...It was SO GOOD and ENTERTAINING.... Go see if you get the chance.
We had a bit of sewing time, so I was working on my Matisse squares fusing down the abstract bits...
And I had a bit of help on the iron... Boo says she loves to iron...cool!
(My least favorite part, is ironing...)
I think she just loves my Oliso iron. ;-)
Got a few very busy weeks ahead, finishing projects for QuiltCon and then preparing for The QUILT SHOW, right afterwards!
So, I'll use my "15 Minutes to PLAY" when I need a break! Then I can continue on finishing projects...
(You can still get signed copies fo my book here)
It was a great weekend with Pat. Sometimes, one needs to get out from behind that sewing machine and play... and that we did... (and ate some really good food) ;-)
Hope your weekend was fantastic, too!
To answer your question Victoria as to why you spend more when shopping with others...because the fun time is the excuse to let go of your restraints and enjoy yourself! I think we all pretty much do the same.
ReplyDeleteLove both your quilts you are working on too.
Wow...you are so busy...you must have a full date book to keep it all straight!
Love the new sketch books you bought...I'd have gotten them too~ ♥♥♥
Lots of great sales now that the holidays are over, that is when I start buying again;) I love to iron too, well, quilting that is, my clothes are all wrinkled, lol.

Your design wall is so happy!!
ReplyDeleteI love to take a day with a friend and go browsing thru little shops and checking out quilt stores. Lunch is always a part of the day and so much fun.
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing when I am shopping with friends.... Enjoy
ReplyDeletefirst off, I got your book this week. I was so excited when my amazon order came in. First glance I love it! You did a wonderful job with the book.
ReplyDeleteI wrote a paper on Henri Matisse in college. He is one of my favorite artists. So many people don't know that when he started to go blind, he kept going with his art from painting to his paper cut outs. To have that passion for color and shape!
It sound like such a fun weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you two had some fun! I just noticed, you have 1200 followers, that's such a nice round number, and that's a lot of followers too! Could you direct me to your post or show pics of your dresden plates you made with the chevron prints?
ReplyDeleteThe Matisse quilt is looking so cool! Sounds like you two had a blast.
ReplyDeleteOooh, oooh, I'm loving the Matisse quilt! It really speaks to me.
