Hat-Flower Heaven
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.
