Well I got back home to Maryland this weekend, and right away I got to go on another Creative Excursion! Even on a rainy day, walking around Washington DC is one of my favorite things to do. My morning started yesterday at a Starbucks at 1700 Pennsylvania Ave :), then I took a stroll down the street past the
White House...
...
Blair House, the guest house for visiting Heads of State...
...And I ended up
Here! The DAR is one of my very favorite museums. I met friends from the
Baltimore Applique Society,
(and a visiting friend I hadn't seen in a while!) and we were treated to a wonderful presentation upstairs of some quilts that aren't displayed
(We got to wear white gloves and really explore the quilts!), and then we were treated to a museum tour :)
I left with some great photos that I was allowed to snap (but not publish), and this pattern to add to my collection! I saw this quilt displayed in the museum, so I couldn't resist the pattern :)
...Now today I have to buckle down and get some work done for a change!
Enjoy the day!
