City Visit

A few weeks ago, Phil said he wanted to go to see K for his birthday.  “IF” she would have that Friday off of work, we could even show him where she works.  (Friday is her normal day off but it doesn’t always happen that she is really “off”.)  By Weds of last week, we had the all clear that she’d be off so we continued our plans.

I finished her wallhanging — totally done, bound, labeled, washed — and she said she had found a duvet cover she thought would match.   I bask in the joy of her ability to see the fabrics online, know they are good in the quilt pattern, and keeping those same colors in her mind, find the perfect duvet cover!   🙂  I love this part of the apple falling close to the tree.  🙂

Here is the quilt on the wall.  LOVE how the turquoise canopy brings out the blues in the flying geese border.  🙂

This is the view from her front door hallway.  It is feeling more & more homey all the time.   After we went home, she added her new green nightstand to the room, too.

We headed to find her work —

And passed Saint Philip School!  LOL!!

My favorite amazing area is this row of about 7 pressers.  They have this high-end pressing equipment but are in here like sardines.  They all smile when K tells them we are her parents.  🙂

She found those throughout the plant that work for her in the wedding department and gave special introductions to them.  Her specific presser, the one packing veils for preservation, the receptionist.

 

Then we headed downtown… more later.   🙂
