    It was great. Heard Mary Fons speak and she signed posters for everyone (free). She is really a sweet young woman

    Hmmm...never heard of it. Guess I missed it. I'm about 4 hrs. from there. Is it an annual thing?

    Wanted to go but did not make it again this year. I did go to the show in Mt Pleasant SC last week. I bought a Juki Longarm. Waiting for it to be delivered....

    They are normally in Raliegh NC in June, thinking about driving down. I went a few years ago and it was great. Great classes to on lots of things. google it and you can get on their mailing list and you'll always know where they are.

    Coming to Worcester, MA in April 7, 8 & 9. Have not been to this show before. Is there much for quilters or is it mainly garment sewing? Fabric vendors? Thanks.

    I found it was mostly for quilters. Some embroidery and some garment sewing. Also lots of various fabrics, threads and notions. There was a big display of quilts.
