I go to the show with my daughter, we stay for three days. The show is OK, not my favorite, but any opportunity to go to Burkholder's, Sauder's, and Zooks- and we go.

When in March is it? My brother and fav SIL live in Downingtown, PA and I love to visit Lancaster when there. Might have to schedule a visit - from OKLA.

If it is at the time of the really big Lancaster show, then worth it. There are three this year. The downtown show by American Quilters Association. One back (but smaller) at the Host and then the vendors at the Continental Hotel across the street.

I have been going for many years - mostly to meet up with friends. And We have a blast. We all love seeing all the beautiful quilts and visiting all the shops. And having several shows makes it all the more fun.

Last year I spent a full day at the AQS show held in downtown Lancaster at the convention center. Then the next day I spent about half-a-day at the two shows at the Host and the Continental. I enjoyed visiting all three sites.

The dates are March 14th - 17th.

I'm heading up there this year for a few classes, shopping and ideas. It's my favorite area show.

I have never been to a quilt show but 4 of us are going to the Lancaster Quilt Show. We are staying for 2 nights. We went to hotwire.com and got reservations. Each of us are paying $50.00 for 2 nights. Can't beat $25.00 per night. It is at the Wyndam.
