BAY RIDGE, CONTINUED

Doesn't this picture make you hungry (to create)? Aren't they delicious? $3 a yard, people! I'm trying to buy fewer patterned fabric and more solids because I have a lot of art quilts brewing inside me. Oh, and that's a buttery soft warm cotton knit on the right, in the perfect neutral stone color. Last time I found black and made a great skirt that I could sleep in it's so comfortable. When I saw this I grabbed it. Angel said there might be more in some unpacked bags so you better believe I'll be checking back. $8.75 is the total cost of the skirt!
As promised I am posting pictures from my most recent trip to Bay Ridge. I made yet another trip to retrieve my sewing machine (which appears to be purring like a kitten finally) and figured I'd make a detour on the way home to visit Angel again.

I wanted to take a picture of the inside but how would I explain that? How do you, fellow bloggers, explain it when you click pics?

Here's one more for good measure. I love driving home and seeing the Verrazzano Bridge at the end of the avenue. That's why they call it Bay Ridge, see? Because it's at the bay's ridge.... Some of you may think it's silly to point that out but I find myself very interested in the way places come to be called. Most interesting to me to date is Intercourse, Pennsylvania! I'd love to hear your favorites - bring it on!
