[QUOTE= I have never been to AZ and have no idea what to expect. We are staying extra days for a vacation.[/QUOTE]

I been to Eloy for skydiving camps. Be sure to get up early and look at the sunrise over the desert. Beautiful!

BE SURE TO VISIT THE GRAND CANYON !!!! It's absolutely indescribable! The difference between pictures you've seen and experiencing the massiveness and grandeur can not be overstated. We thought we knew what to expect, but we were absolutely blown away!

Whatever the weather in Phx, you know it will be better than the north! We've visited spent time there the last couple yrs...last yr it snowed almost every day in while we were gone. Check out 3 Dudes Quilt Shop. Very helpful. They always have coffee and cookies, too. : )

We have been to several gem and mineral shows in Tucson during Feb. The shows are the biggest around and quite spectacular if you head south.

This is a great show. Many venders. They have this show every year and is lots of fun. I do a bus trip for our sewing club and the members fill it quickly.

Gaga, which show are you talking about? I'm only finding information about the show from Jan 30 to Feb 1. Is there a link we can follow? There are a few of us in Alaska who might need to fly down for the show!

I will be there. I live between Prescott and Sedona. Cottonwood!!!

You will love Arizona in February..........not so much in July and August.

We live in the norther AZ area and my son that lives in Phoenix knows not to expect to see me down there in the summer months!

Arizona does have some awesome quilt stores all over the state. I'm looking forward to the show down there also:thumbup:, as it should be comparable to Paduca, which I've never gotten to go to.

Enjoy your vacation and the quilt show!

February 2014, 1st weekend 5th thru the 8th is a Major Quilt show AQS being held at the AZ Convention Center!!!

This is not the state quilt show they have around that time of year.

You will love it. Be sure to go see the Grand Canyon.
