Going to Paducah is a great trip--a group of friends and I have been going for the past 5 or 6 years together--the quilts are always spectacular and the shopping is so much fun--one thing we always do is have strawberry shortcake at the boy scout stand--yummy--it is about 3 hour drive from STL

The Paducah Quilt Show is one of the Most Seen Quilt Shows on the circuit! It is hugh and one that is where the most money is spent by quilters!!! Please stop by the OLISO Booth 4510 and talk to my husband Dennis!!! He will be demonstrating the best and hottest steam iron on the market!!!

I'm going for the first time. My cousin and I are going on the road next Wed for 3 weeks and will be visiting other cousins in OH & NC. These are areas I've never been before and am excited to get on the road! I'm sure we will have a great time in Paducah--she's been before and says it's great.

WHere do you park and is there bus or tram service to Carson Park?

Lucky you! It is so much fun and so much to see and buy. Went a few years ago. Two girls from our guild were juried in with a wallhanging and a quilt. They are so excited and their work is wonderful. Have a great time.

What day are you going? I will be there on Thursday our guild rented a bus.

Hi! My hubby and I have been going for a few years now. There is trolly and bus service just for the show all over the main parts of Paducah. Go to www.americanquilter.com and click on shows. It is the AQS site and all the info you need is there.

Definitely get the strawberry shortcake that was mentioned earlier. It is delicious! And Whalers Catch, real close to the museum, always has a great lunch and a special adult beverage for us quilters. :)
