Yes Yes I am going on Thur opening day. Can't wait hope this one is bigger & better with their new location.

I hope it improves too. I think this will be the third year (I think) for the new people and the last two were not as nice as they had been. The free parking will be nice no matter what the weather. The underground parking garage was so dim and dank.

Isn't the admission up from last year?

I'll be going tomorrow and then again on Friday with some friends that are coming up from TX.

YES, it did go up...guess they figured with FREE parking, they cud charge more at the gate! I was really disappointed in last years' too..Not sure I'll go this year, still thinking..;o)

I did appear to me to be up. If I recall my figures correctly it's $2.00 more after the coupon discount.

Oh well, third time's a charm --- I hope.

I would love to go, but as usual there are to many things going on right now for me to even think about it. Hopefully someday I will be able to go.

Hey, Enchant - let us know what you thought of the show....just curious. Thx

It's much better than the last two years. Still light on the talent but the quilts and shopping are very nice.

Well I went to the show on Thur. Kinda short on venders but the one's there were really good. Enjoyed it not to crowed ( I hate large crowds) but not as big as last year. Had lots of Tote bag venders, the usually longarm venders with no supplies just machines((Ugh Ugh). Lots of beautiful material but $$$ (to be expected) Lots of rulers & gadgets. I came home with some new templates, patterns & fabric not a lot.I spent way more last yr. But I liked this show better the vendors were better organized. Oh Oh they had the most beautiful quilts displayed and I forgot my camera ....If you have a chance to go its worth it .
