A day in the city

Ahhh! A day in the city started out with breakfast with one of my sisters <3 Always lovely. Then the mad dash hunt looking for a few particular things. Pants!!! The great hunt for pants. Found 2 pairs at a local consignment shop that still had brand new tags, minus the brand new price. Can't complain there. Then went into what I knew would be dangerous territory, the quilting shop!!! I may have found the new sewing machine for me, the Pfaff Quilt Expressions 4.0 What a lovely machine and a work horse. Would definitely see me through the years as a quilter and a hobbyist dressmaker.
