Anyone going to the Lancaster Quilt Show?
#51
I wore my red ribbons proudly, but never saw anyone else. :( The show was wonderful, and there were so many creative and beautiful quilts there. I did my share of supporting the show with enough pattern and fabric purchases to hold me until next year. My DH even programed Weavers fabric store into the GPS so I had a fun after the show shopping spree there too. Now I'm tired after the 2hr 45 min trip home, so I'm going to sit back and enjoy a glass of wine.

We also were at Weavers about 4pm when were you there?
I think I also definitely helped support the quilting industry this weekend :wink:

YES!!! that was me. I was getting the tool fabric to make a quilt for my Dad. Did you go to the barn in the back. I picked up two big pieces for the back of that quilt and I got them for a dollar less a yard because I took what was left on the bolt. That was a good deal @ $2.55 a yard. Well a little late but it was nice meeting you on saturday. I always say quilters are a friendly group of people.

You are right, quilters are great people. Maybe we will meet again.

We were there on Friday too, I had my red ribbon on, but like you all I didn't see anyone else with a red ribbon either.
The show was amazing, the first one I have gone too.
We are just a little over an hour from Lancaster and spend a lot of time camping there, or sometimes just for the day. Have gone to Weavers many times, not Friday though, but didn't know about the "back barn", will have to look for it next time. We also go to Goods, next to Shady Maple Smorgasboard and to a fabric outlet in Churchtown, just a mile or so from Shady Maple, if you know where that is.
Good to know we shared the experience, even if we didn't meet, maybe next time.
