I think it's very sad and shows no hope. 95% of my guild of 150 plus members are going to retreats, taking classes at quilt shops, going anywhere quilt related that is open. Those few who don't have health issues or spouses that do. I just came home from a quilt retreat last week. I don't think losing up to 20% of audience who won't be around people would be that much of a loss for events as the restrictions are getting less strict in most states. I think so many vendors that depend on the quilt shows for their livelihood will go out of business leaving even less to fill the vendor spots when the shows reopen. Vendor fees are the money makers for the shows. Isn't the release of the vaccine in a couple of months suppose to lift all public bans once it is available to the public regardless of who chooses to take it or not? It's a mess.
