I went to the OKC quilt show today...hour and a half drive...was the first quilt show I have ever been to and I really enjoyed it:)
Even won a basket of goodies:)
And made half a quilt at the B Sew Inn sewing area for charity.
Wish I could have met some of my fellow quilting board members...maybe next time:)

well...not really, that $8.00 entrance fee went to something...I was stunned that they wanted that much for a GUILD show....think they need to rethink their venue...a smaller building would mean a smaller entrance fee...and less walking!

Right, next time we'll get cell phone numbers too. that would probably help too. I'm still glad I went, loved the spaciousioness and a/c. I don't think that was the orginal plan to have it in that bldg. , but it worked for me!!

Pollyv9 and I were there on Friday....took lots of pictures will post them. Stunning best in show quilt was a round quilt, wow!, As to the price, it seemed reasonable to me. We have been going for years and it always seems to be around that price for a one day admission. remember there are expenses in holding one of these, my only suggestion is that they put out more benches for us old folks to parks our behinds on when viewing and lucky you guys who won door prizes. Anyway six months to wait for the next show.
