How do you find out about quilt shows in one's area? I always find out after they've come and gone.

I just typed in the word quilt show and the area--like quilt show Hampton Virginia or quilt show Wilminton North Carolina. Usually the group sponsoring the show will have something up on line. The one here in raleigh this weekend, I found out about because the Capital ARea Quilters Guild had booth in Hampton. They were selling raffle tickets for their quilt.

Mimisharon is here!!! I'm taking a short break from taffeta and green so decided to check out what is going on.

Planning ahead to June, is it to early to plan. Not at all!! With the weddings and things going on this year.......I'll let everyone know they won't find me around anywhere but Wilmington on those days.

We'll have to meet somewhere wearing Quilting nametags before we go to the show, right??? lol lol

The show is at Hoggard High School June 22-24 on Shipyard blvd. There's a Henry's restruant near by. They have great food. It's kinda far off so you guys remind me a few weeks before it's time. See you then.

Just a small correction
http://www.nqaquilts.org/statechapters.asp

Also, there are a lot more shows than they list. It is a good reference anyway. Thanks, Debbie!! :-)

Come on out, Norah, you and Patrice can both stay with me and we'll drive the 50 minutes to Wilmington. OR, we can all stay at a place in Wilmigton and not have to drive, just walk around with cameras and talk quilting. Someone remind me to take my insulin and we'll be find. I can do my own share of quilt talk, so maybe we should all just leave the ear plugs home??????

Calendar is out and marked!! Woohoo!!! Quilters I talk to daily. Love it, love it! :D
