When we visited the quilt museum in Paducah, we were told not to take photos......I could understand the "flash".....who uses cameras anymore, anyway, daughter used her smartphone, was seen doing that and was told to cease or leave.....needless to say she ceased. Just wanted to show them to friends back home...as we were leaving we noticed a "book of quilts" being sold at front desk....go figure!
