yes, I will be going and am looking at the classes right now. Do you have any in mind? I live about 20 mins away from the show.

Good chance our guild will make up a trip. We're near enough to make a day trip out of it, but I'd like to stay longer.

I live about 2 hours away to the north. I love looking at the quilts. They have so many new gadgets.

I'm about 3 1/2 hours away and thought about going - I wanted to take some classes but there wasn't a single one that interested me :( Hopefully the fall show will have more quilty stuff - I think this one is more of a sewing expo than a quilting expo...?

Yes, it's true. The fall show seems to have more quilting and less sewing. I am always kind of disappointed in the exhibited quilts but I like the vending part.
