My friend Peggi and I went for the first time last year, and we're slated to go this year, too. It was wonderful! And HUGE! We spent SO much time looking at the quilts and shopping there that we'd have never had time for classes the first year. The nice thing about going with Peggi is that while we spent time together looking and shopping, we also spent time alone to see the things we each liked, as we both have completely different tastes when it comes to quilting LOL. It's great when you don't feel you must constantly be with each other and worry about entertaining each other. We're both independent that way. What I really enjoyed was having someone who made me see things a little "differently" than I normally see them. She really opened my eyes to things I wouldn't have noticed were she not there. Took me out of my "comfort zone". We had a blast, and I couldn't think of anyone better to go with! You'll have a great time. Just wear seriously comfortable shoes
