Great longarm show. Not much else but it was good for specifics. The quilt that won the grand prize totally deserved it and should win top prize anywhere. Piecing, applique, embroidery, inking, quilting, it had it all.

The classes were good but one complaint is that they tried to shoehorn too many bodies in the lecture classes. McTavish had 65 in her "How Do I Quilt This" class. Too many to talk long about any one quilt. The teachers had good visual tools though.

One teacher charged us $30 for three little sandwiches to use so they did try and nickel and dime us. But the time to practice on new machines was precious.

I did learn that it is very much a business and I should wait before purchasing anything. So I am going home to work on my Bernina much more.
