Well, cloisters, Musuem of Modern Art, a broadway show, the three rivers boat tour ( great history and shots of Lady Liberty).
Garment district for fabric and notions. There is a store called Metro Textiles. On 9th floor of what looks like an office building. Jaw dropping amount of fabric in small shop. He has all types, not specifically quilting. I will admit i bought mostly dress making fabric, italian silk wool blends for suits, silk lining fabric, cotton lawn. But well worth the visit, i order from him by phone now when i want something specific. He remembers me: calls me the Woolen's Lady and i shopped his store once in person and he knew me the second time i called looking for suit fabric.
Oh yes, did i mention the silk wool blends were only 20.00 a yard, the lawn about 8.00 and by the time we got to lining for the suits, that was 5.00. so prices were amazing.
His cutter used to work in garment industry, just looked at me and knew how much yardage to cut for any garment i suggested, so no pattern, no problem. He was right on and i've had no problems matching fabric to patterns later.
he'll ship it home for you as well.
