Day 5 - Zarin Fabrics, More Good Friends, and Top Of The Rock

Anne and Michael at Zarin Fabrics

"You know what Betheny? We ARE done." -Jill Zarin

We almost called it quits this morning and headed to Philly. But we rallied instead and ventured into the city one last time. I'm soooo glad we did. It turned out to be another fantastic day. The perfect end to a perfect trip.

Michael watches "The Real Housewives of New York." Not religiously but often enough. And Jill Zarin has a fabric store in the lower east side. We figured it would be too expensive for us, but I though it was worth a shot.

Getting to Zarin Fabrics, we walked through China Town and Little Italy. Actually it was more like China Town then Little Italy then China Town then Little Italy then China Town. It seemed to change every block. Anyway, we found the store and as we approached it Bobby, who is Jill Zarin's husband, came walking out. Another celebrity sighting. So, the fabrics here are primarily upholstery (right up our alley, since we like to recover furniture) and aren't any more expensive than any other store. Plus they are beautiful! Michael found some fabric and would not let anyone touch his Zarin Fabric bag all day!!
