If you are heading there in mid-June, do plan to go about 60 minutes further south (all 4 lanes+) to Overland Park KS, Overland Park Convention Center for the KC Regional Quilt Fest June 15-17. Great classes (and great prices on them compared to other BIG shows), 3 special exhibits, judged quilts, quilt displays from the 14 Guilds that put this on, about 130 vendors (at least 30 on a waiting list), really nice convention center. I've heard that the rooms set aside at the 4 walking distance hotels may be full now, but there are others within about 5-10 minutes in Overland Park. MSQC trip is FABULOUS--plan at least a full day and probably 2 to see it all and not be overwhelmed. Suggest you go with a list as you will do too much impulse buying otherwise!
