ASG New York Tour - May 16-22, 2009
Well, I'm back from my second tour of New York City in two months. It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it! Actually, it's my pleasure to share this fabulous city with like minded sewing enthusiasts. On this trip, we had 18 women, including a grandma, her daughter-in-law, two granddaughters, two sisters, two sets of mothers and daughters, and even one lucky husband. We had women from Canada, Australia and all over the US. I guess you could say it was an international family affair!

Here we are at Koos van den Akker's workroom. Spring had arrived in NYC and the weather was absolutely lovely. We visited museums, took a city tour, walked through Central Park, shopped for lots of fabrics, trims and buttons, and visited designer workrooms.

Next week, I will blog about our visits and post more photos.

Thanks again Marsha and Marla for being such great hosts on the ASG New York tour! There was so much to see and do and so many fabric/sewing shops to check out! I've been there many times but never to the places we went to. Hope to go again!

Judy:
We are so glad you came along and brought your daughter-in-law and granddaughters. Three generations traveling together is very special. I know the girls were thrilled with some of their shopping experiences. It seems there is something for every age in New York and many things we can all enjoy together. Thanks for coming along.

Is fire hot or cold? Why ask this? It helps verify that you're human!
