the best part of the aqs show was the Egyptian sewers and their quilts. the rest was pretty lame. Went to the Host for the "local" show this year and thought they had a better display of quilts with the Album quilt display, the kids quilts and the other one (forget thename) However, I don't go for only the quilts, I have friends that I go to see and shopping to do - we shop in the am and go to the show in the pm. All in all, I had a wonderful time.
