long has it been? Thank heaven for Twitter. I've been on the road for
the last 9 days, in Pittsburgh, Ohio & New York, hopping from one
meeting to the next. My dad met up with me in the middle there and we
toured around his childhood neighborhoods and mine. I lived near
Pittsburgh till I was 4 or 5 and in Ohio till I was 8. It was every
bit as beautiful as I remember, or more so. In most places, our
next-door neighbors still lived there (wild). I have a lot to share. I can't wait to get back home and sort through the photos and stories.
Yesterday,
between meetings in NY, I stopped by Tinsel Trading Co. on 37th —
vintage hat flower heaven! I have some fun projects in store for this
jackpot. Another reason to get home soon.
So, after a quick
stop by Purl Patchwork, and some other SoHo favorites this afternoon,
I'll make my way to LaGuardia, then home. It's been a great trip, but
I'm ready to be back with my family and back to my list of to-dos. We
have some big things in store this summer.
I am LOVING those little vintage flowers. I can’t wait to see what you have in store!
I heart PurlSoho!
Glad to have you back! Isn’t it great seeing some of your history? It always blows me away, though, what used to seem so tall, like a fence around a former house, is now so small. hmmm. 🙂 Makes me smile thinkin’ about it.
I’ve been obsessed with flower hair clips lately. I may have to be signed up for “craft-a-holics anonymous” soon. LOVE those vintage flowers.
i’ve been waiting for you to post and was hoping for some photos from the quilt market
thanks so much for the tinsel trading link, I’ll be in NYC in 3 weeks and will for sure take a look at that shop
and also Purl Patchwork, as my hotel is not far
would have loved to know the other Soho favourites, as it will be my first time overthere as your taste is just fabulous
It was such an honor meeting you and having lunch with you, after stalking you on Flickr, your blog then facebook for couple years =) have a safe trip home!!!
I love those vintage flowers and ribbons and tidbits.
meeting you today was awesome!!! have a safe trip back, and thanks again for making time for echo and i!!!

Oh how nice-sounds like a fun trip.We’re moving to Ohio this summer so I’m glad to hear someone besides my Mom say how nice it is-she grew up there:) I’ve only been once!
How funny that you stopped by Tinsel Trading! I was there last Tuesday, during a visit to NY. Great store, isn’t it?
Whew… you’re one busy woman! 🙂
Wow, it is rare for the neighbors to still be there when you go back to visit childhood homes.
Love those flowers! Shopping in NYC – lucky girl 🙂
Don’t forget Rice to Riches in Soho. I was there yesterday and can still taste the yummy rice pudding!
