Welcome to the board Clare ... see ya at the Fiesta!

Thanks, I'd love to meet you there - and look forward to this new experience. It was nice to be invited to exhibit - I missed out on the opportunity last year but all the ducks are in their row this year ;)

its going tobe lots of fun
we get groups in busses from Phx.,so ther are usually 2000 or more visitors to the show

Just got back from the show and I am totally in awe of the talent demonstrated by so many of the exhibitors. The "Best in Show" quilt was truly outstanding in every way and included some techniques I hadn't seen used on a quilt before. The door prize quilt has also been beautifully done and I made sure I bought my tickets on the way in :-) Of course, I also bought more fabric and quilt patterns while I was there ;-)

All in all, a fun day and definitely well worth the drive from Phoenix!

I had lots of fun also,but fabric(like I need more) I put a s;lide show of some pictures in the pic section please check it out

I am so jealous :roll: Wish I was there with you all, Had I known ahead of time I would have come down in my little 17 foot casita trailer and stayed at the Voyager resort park, It is only a 6 hour drive from here , I won best of Peoples choice , second prize award ribbon here in November for my appiqued Tree of Life that I entered, I was so surprised,There are so many beautiful quilts in the shows, My quilt also won first at the MohaveCo Fair in 2008, :-P

that is beautiful!
