I made this picnic quilt for my sister Laura. It’s so lovely I think I need to make one for myself.

Today we had brunch and meandered through Eastern Market. We sat by the pool by the Capitol building. We stumbled upon an Asian Heritage Festival where I enjoyed some pad Thai and great people watching. We strolled through Old Town Alexandria. We had drinks and apps with some other Wake gals in Sarah’s backyard. We had a fabulous dinner in the city and then watched a visual art projection on a museum for a while. All this with lots of laughter and great conversation with my best friends. Couldn’t really ask for a better Saturday.
