Anyone planning to go to the quilt show in Knoxville this week?

momymom 07-13-2010 12:28 PM

I'll be taking mom to the show on Thursday.

TNAngel 07-13-2010 01:13 PM

I'm going on Saturday and taking my DM

boxerlady 07-13-2010 03:23 PM

Probably going Thursday.

QuiltingGrannie 07-13-2010 05:11 PM

DH and I will be there Friday and maybe into Sat.
You can find me at the long arms ( doing some comparison shopping)as well as everywhere else :thumbup: :lol:

To far away for me.

Where in Knoxville? I might like to go!

QuiltingGrannie 07-14-2010 06:41 AM

It's down town at the convention center.

Grandmama Pat 07-14-2010 07:08 AM

OK, thanks.

12 of us in the quilt class I help teach are going Friday. We're from Huntsville. Three of the 12 are children who took classes from us. One of them is a 4H blue ribbon winner twice!!! We're all looking forward to it.

Will try. I won't be able to post pics until Monday since I have to work when I get home from the show, so someone may post before I do.
Stay tuned....

sandpat 07-15-2010 11:01 AM

Oh thanks....I can't wait to see...I would just LOVE to go! Someday I will, but in the meantime I would really enjoy seeing your pics. Monday will be just fine! :D

Tippy 07-15-2010 06:41 PM

Be cautious about posting pics folks.. they have info on their site with "rules" for posting pics.. must have the permission of the quilter and the guild to post them.. That being said, I was there yesterday and spent the day with Sidmona.. it was FANTASTIC! I may go back tomorrow or Saturday. Walked my feet off.

wvdek 07-15-2010 06:45 PM

I wish I could, but alas, no.

Have fun!

sandpat 07-15-2010 07:01 PM

Oh...I didn't know about the "rules"..I wouldn't want anyone to post something that shouldn't be. I'll have to wait for AQS to post some pics then. Thanks for offering so show us though and thanks much for mentioning that they shouldn't be posted by board members here!

Thank God for wonderful husbands that are willing to push their wife around in a wheelchair for 9 hours and take over 200 pictures at a quilt show!! I don't know how many men would do that. Not only that but he 'let' me purchase a Pfaff Creative Vision 5.5. I am so excited I can hardly stand it!!!!!!!!!

It is a great show, many wonderful quilts and such a wide variety. I'm afraid to post pictures, though, because of their rules. Maybe someone else will be braver than me.

sandpat 07-16-2010 05:23 AM

Oh no Linda...I don't think anyone should post their pics if its against their rules. Sounds like you had a wonderful time though and congrats on the great "keeper" DH and your new machine!

QuiltingGrannie 07-16-2010 04:27 PM

1st day at the show! So much to see! Going again tomorrow! Many beautiful quilts! Lots of people! My DH was amazed at how many people as well as vendors are here!

I've taken pics, but don't know about posting them. Sorry.

Got spotted by Tippy. I was busy learning about a long arm so we didn't talk but to say Hi.

Sorry momymom - I left your number and didn't have the computer with me at the time to look up your number. I missed meeting you!

momymom 07-18-2010 03:10 AM

Morning everyone. Got home yesterday. The show was a pretty good one. Momma really enjoyed her first show. She's not a quilter. Just couldn't get her to remember the one golden rule, don't touch the quilts!!!! We walked our feet off! Took lots of pictures, but I didn't know the rules either, so I won't post them.
I was so busy trying not to lose Momma, I didn't watch for flower pins. Hope everyone enjoyed the show!

Tennessee Suzi 07-19-2010 05:37 AM

I was there on Saturday, took a lot of pictures and spent waaaaaay too much money. The dreams were free though. Got to meet and have a long chat with Alex Anderson!
