I too am so lucky to live in western KY and go to the Paducah quilt show. My friends and I spend as many days as we want drooling over the beautiful quilts, meeting people from all over the world, and spending our last nickel! The Boy Scouts also sell the most scrumptious homemade strawberry shortcake! Then again--I want to go to the Houston show! Haha! There's always another place!!
