Use the checking/shipping services upstairs if you get loaded down.

Rolling carts/bags for purchases are no longer allowed. Wheelchairs, scooters & strollers are allowed. I highly recommend the baggage check on the second floor. It will really save your back. Just be sure you don't buy so much that you can't carry it to your car!
Have a great time! Festival is the best time of the year!!
Yes, they do have the "No rolling carts/bags rule" ... but EVERY year we still see lots of them, mostly the bag type. Don't know why they don't enforce it ??
Actually it's all the big STROLLERS with SCREAMING kids that are the problem ... don't know WHY these moms want to drag little kids through a huge quilt show ... neither one enjoys it AND it bothers the rest of us !! Get a SITTER, please... I did when mine were little, or I went on the weekend, so they could stay home with DH !
FYI there are also package checks on the main floor, usually at the IQF booth areas :)
