On July 5th, designer Giulia Manfredini was visiting the USA from Italy with her daughter Sofia and husband Mario. Some of the Swan Guild board members met up with her and had a lovely dinner at Market Street Grill. We were so excited to visit with her and her family. I took my "Queen Sofia's Sewing Bag and chatelaine" with me so that she could see that I did, in fact, finish it (2 years ago). We had a great time visiting with her. Here are a few pictures, one of the whole group at dinner, from left to right: Sofia, Loree Romriell, Giulia, Sandra Ball, Cathy DeCaria, myself, and Mario.
This is a picture of me and Giulia.

Thanks Giulia for coming to the US so we could meet you!
