Anybody going to the Quilt Show at Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park in October? I'm going to be there. I would love to meet some QB members.

Here's information about the show and below that I included a link to a site about the park.

Sounds like fun. I'll have to get my map and see exactly where it is located. We are only a few miles from Pensacola and are hoping to head to Fl for some R&R but Aug and Sept are not good for us. Oct would be though! :lol: It would be fun to hit up the quilt show as we wander around. :lol:

It's a beautiful park and it has a bell carillon that plays Stephen Foster tunes.

Boy, I'd love to go, but that's a 6 hour drive for me here in the bottomlands of Florida. I made that trip three times in June!! We try to make the Florida Folk Fest at that park every Memorial Day weekend. It's one of my favorite parks.

Are there any other events going on with it?? Some good music might be enough to entice me to make the drive. That and some good contradancing.

If I don't make it, have a good time at the show!

I'm going to bookmark your post. That would be a nice trip for DH and I to make. Thanks for letting us know about the show.

I will look into this, that is only about an hour for me. Need to check our calendar and see what's up.

Pardon, thank you for giving us this information.

Sounds like fun where in Florida is it?? I'm in central Florida and my snow bird quilting buddy may be here by then and we'll go on a road trip.

White Springs is north of you, close to the GA border.

I'll have to get my map put and do a check.
