New York and back at home.....

we had an enjoyable, entertaining and lively time in New York City.....we stayed at the W Hotel right in the middle of Times Square.....

here's greg with his award plaque at the Wesley J Howe Awards....awards are given in the research and development of medical devices, greg received his for his work in developing Veritor, a flu test.....

many events were planned including getting to see the Broadway Musical It's Nice Work If You Can Get It with Matthew Broderick....the free time was filled with a Central Park stroll, Anthropologie and the Folk Art Museum.....






after catching up on orders and cleaning house i headed out to my sewing room, this is what's on my design floor right now.....an antique quilt inspired, using the Four Knaves block, oh i'm loving it.....will be lap size when done....

and i finished quilting and binding on three new designs for patterns soon.....

now back to my sewing machine, enjoy your day.....
