Week 16-2009
We then caught the train from New York to Boston and had five days with my friend Geraldine and her family (Geraldine is my journal quilt friend). We visited some great fabric shops (fabric at $ 8.00 a yard!) and also the Lowell Quilting Museum which had a contemporary exhibition of Swiss/American quilters plus some of their antique collection on display. Geraldine has finished her journal quilt. It was great to see all her blocks. We assisted with the Art Exhibition at Stacey’s school. One great thing which we did was to go to a Boston Red Socks baseball game. I had bought tickets over the internet for the five of us. It was interesting to be with a crowd of 35,000 people, 33,000 of whom were supporting Boston. We also had dinner with Andy and Kate Ebbott, my distant cousins on my mother’s side.
