I'm heading there on Friday, can't wait! I was there the year before they moved it to OH, and I didn't have enough time that year to see everything I wanted (especially the vendors). The next year they moved it and I was soo disappointed. Glad they moved it back, I'm so looking forward to it.

Hubby says we are going on Saturday! Doing the happy dance. The question is: Can I handle two shows in one week? I have reservations in Shipshewana on Wed. Hummmmmm... yes I can!

I went to the show today and really enjoyed it. There was a lot of walking and a lot of vendors. My feet and Visa card are both tired, but I got some great stuff.

How does this show compare in size to Paducah?

So happy for you Deb...
I'm not going this time....boohoo...I'm stuck with a Strawberry Festival that had the dates change because of the weather. It's already paid for and no refunds.
Have a great time...I'll really miss going.

I also went today; the show was fantastic! The vendor section alone is worth it. I've been to Paducah in the past. I think there are more quilts on display in Paducah, and the vendor section is comparable. Maybe someone else can back me up, it's been probably 8 years or so since Paducah, so maybe my memory is foggy.
