My younger daughter and I went of to investigate the Middle Ages and religious art...
I'm always amazed when I go that they have entire buildings and architectural elements inside the galleries....
Right down to the beautiful stained glass windows....
After a jaunt through the Asian Art, then the Contemporary Art (which,like Contemporary Quilts, I just don't get!) we headed down to the old Philadelphia Waterworks.
We had a beautiful view of Boathouse Row....
After the museum, we met our son at Dave and Busters for lunch and a little game playing, then headed home a did a little bit of Christmas Shopping at some fun stores.And just to make this post a little quilty, I finished this quilt which I found in my closet. The backing came from the stash...it's the last of an old Jinny Beyer backing fabric which I bought about 12 years ago, so I'm delighted to have it GONE!!!
The stashbusting continues...

What a wonderful way to spend Black Friday! I'd have been with your husband and daughter in the Renoir exhibit -- but I would have hated to miss the architecture!
Oh - I remember that window!! We were in Jersey for 10 years. I miss the museums back east.
But I really remember that terrible traffic circle by the bridge. Apt name was Rush St??? Is that still there?
