I knew it was comming up. Memorial Weekend is just not a good time for me to go. More family & vacation stuff going on. Wish they would have it on a non-holiday weekend.


Nice ~ are you going?

Yes, I'm taking a machine quilting class on Friday with Harriet Hargrave and going to a lecture on Saturday with John Flynn. Other than that I'll be looking at quilts and spending money lol

Well, I didn't plan ahead of time so I'm not going. Have a great time and let us know how it went.

HH did talks at the Tucson show a couple years ago - she's great. I would love to take a class with her. John Flynn is great, too. He (or his daughter) usually come to the Tucson show, and they are very good about answering questions and showing you how to use the Flynn system.

Just to clear up the dates....the show is the weekend after Memorial Day (May 29, 30, 31).

I'm signed up to work 2 hrs on Saturday and 2 on Sunday. I was going to take some classes, but couldn't afford it.

I know I said I wasn't going, but being that I'm a ding dong, LOL, I didn't realize that memorial day was this weekend. Duh I could've looked at a calendar. So now, I'm going!!!! YAY my first show!!!

NiceNCLady: Thanks for the website. I've been checking it out and it made me want to go!
and jackie o. thanks for clearing up the dates.

I'm glad it's in Raleigh this year. Lots of years it's in Asheville and next year it will be in Charlotte. So we're lucky it's close by this year.

Sure would like to go, but it's to far for me to be away from Roy for that long. But I'll be thinking about all of you enjoying it!

Vicki, you are going, aren't you????

Too bad I don't live in NC anymore, I would love to go. I will also be on a cruise to Alaska next week.
