We found a wonderful new apartment in the CBD (Central Business District )of New Orleans. Our shipment hasn't arrived yet from Rio de Janeiro, therefore we have some rental furniture, the guest bedrooms are empty and there is not much to clean. I have a lot of time on my hands and that gives me great opportunity to explore the city. In the French Quarter I came across with a wonderful shop, a little paradise for me. They sell mostly yarns, but there are also loads of needle point and cross stitch materials. The two ladies who run the shop are super sweet and helpful and made me very welcome. Just click on the link below and you will see fantastic pictures. http://www.quarterstitch.com
