I got so busy I forgot to post! I’m home now but here are some more images from my trip.
I looked up at buildings a lot. Don’t you love the way the tall one almost disappears into the sky?
After a while, you can stop looking for nuance. But if you pay attention, there are wonderful things to notice. The reflections off the glass can be truly wonderful!
And then there are little details that you miss if you aren’t mindful as you walk.
I walked along the Hudson River. There is a wonderful trail for both pedestrians and cyclists.
I found an amazing gluten-free bakery at 83rd and Columbus — Modern Bread and Bagel. If you are GF, I recommend going and/or ordering bagels‚—the plain ones. The other breads are also good but the bagels… so amazing. It is worth what it costs for shipping.
I di walk to Times Square, just because.
And I walked the Length of the High Line down to the Whitney Museum to see the Biennial exhibit.
At both the Whitney and the NY Historical Society Museum I saw work from more female artists on display. It’s about time! In fact, did you know that a woman, Clara Wolcott Driscoll, designed most of the Tiffany glass lampshades? I did not know that but, seriously, that shouldn’t be a surprise.
I took a last photo of Columbus, standing above the trees…
I did do quite a bit of sewing. You will hear more about this 20˝ hand pieced 8-point star block…
And then Ted and I parted company. I miss that silly boy!

Looks like you had a wonderful time in the Big Apple. Thank you so much for sharing your photos with us. Haven’t been there in 10 years, so I am sure things have changed since. Appreciated the info about the Tiffany lamps. I did not realize they had been designed by a woman. Plan to watch your video on appliqueing tiny bird beaks. Probably also good information for any tiny pieces.
