If Cindy ever asks to come visit you, say yes. She is the best houseguest. The icing on the cake was when I came home from work on Friday, she was already cooking dinner! She could teach my husband a thing or two.
Conveniently, my local fabric shop, Nancy's Sewing Basket, was having their once-a-year 30% off fabric sale the weekend of Cindy's visit. We went twice, poring over every bolt of fabric and button. We were so absorbed, we forgot to take pictures both times! Several nice things came home with us after each visit, naturally...
Among other things, we both got cuts of Carolina Herrera fabric - Cindy got an amazing navy cotton/silk shirting, and I, two coatings (I'm cutting into one above).
It was a wonderful, relaxed long weekend, with lots of great food (Cindy is a great cook!) and conversation - we talked sewing, we talked life. Cindy, you are welcome back anytime!

Well, you are the best hostess! Tim is the sweetest and your home is beautiful, not to mention the ridiculously awesome neighborhood-walk to fabric, knitting and coffee! Thank you so much!
Oh sounds like you had a great weekend! What could be better than good food, good fabric, good conversation and a good sewing friend to share it with?
Sewing friends are the best!
Sounds like you had the perfect weekend!
How totally cool! I love the projects you both are working on.
Sounds like a perfect weekend! I can't wait to see that vest (at least that's what I think it is...)!
What a wonderful weekend!!
Sounds absolutely fantastic!
Sounds like you had a wonderful time.
By the way, I just love your blog and find it very inspirational; so I have nominated you for a blog award. You can go to my blog to receive it.
I need to have a houseguest who will cook for me :) It sounds like you two had an excellent time!
What a great weekend!
How fun.
I've had several sewing sisters come to stay, and they are the best guests, hands down. Cindy, you're welcome to come to Philadelphia any time you want. My kitchen is your kitchen; same with the sewing room.
I SO wish I was there! Cindy is adorable, as is your house, and look at that plaid coating! Love it.
What a fun time - color me green with envy (tho I doubt Cindy would call coming to my house a vacation! lol).
Oh what fun! It is always so nice to meet sewing sistahs in real life. Glad you both had such a wonderful time!
How fun! I need to do what Cindy did and run away for a few days so I can get some sewing done!
