Me too! I take a carload with me. Some of our guild share a bus with another guild and everyone has a great time.
We always go on the first day so we miss some of the traffic and get first picks on fabric, patterns and such. And the quilts are fabulous. I always take pictures.

I go the first day with my quilter friend mostly to peruse the vendor area, and then I go back Sunday with my husband. He loves to photograph the quilts.

I wished. It is just a little too far away for me.

Hey Heidi (ok, that feels a little weird, like I'm writing a note to myself),
I'm going too! I go on a bus with two of my quilting buddies and a bunch of really great gals from "over the hill" from where I live. I didn't make it last year but I am looking forward to it this year. I save up just to buy something that isn't on sale or that is just totally frivolous.

I just went to the show in Manchester, NH. GORGEOUS quilts, and some amazing designs. Well worth the admission fee. Plan to spend the day!
