I just got back from NYC and it was a blast.
First up, was BEA for a book signing. That was an experience, for sure.
It was great to see Lucky Spool’s first 2 titles (mine and their Essential Guide) represented at the show in Taunton’s booth.
I found my way to City Quilter–which is a beautiful shop! How about the great company my pattern Tangelo had in being next to Jen Kingwell? Score.
On the last day in town, I had my class and book signing at Purl Soho–also a lovely shop and my students were excellent.
There was even a wall of Botanics in our classroom…
I was very impressed with the bundles at Purl…especially these with Botanics…nicely done!
Otherwise my trip included visiting with dear friends, eating lots of very tasty food, plenty of walking/subway riding/googlemapping, and even some archiventuring during a trip to the High Line. Fun seeing you Mr Gehry and Mr Nouvel.
Good times. Thanks so much for everyone who was a part of it!

I am planning my first trip to New York City this summer. Purl Soho is definitely on my list! And the High Line park looks amazing!

Thanks for the great workshop, Carolyn! I loved watching your process and learning the appliqué technique. Your book rocks too! 🙂 – Jen
