I am trying to find quilters who are going to the Georgia Quilt Show in Duluth (Atlanta) on October 14-16.

I am a fairly new dedicated quilter, and am going to this show,plan to sign up for a class-I am in Lawrenceville

The show is presented by theOriginial Sewing and Quilt Expo. It is on October 14-16 in Duluth (Atlanta). There is a preday all-day class that is available. There will be tons of quilts to see and vendors galore. IF you go to their site (www.georgiaquiltshow.com) you can see all the classes. I in Knoxville, TN and have a buddy who usually goes with me, but she is unable to attend this year. We usually ride-share and share a room to save on the expenses.

I'll be coming from Knoxville, TN. I am a new quilter also and that is one reason I am going - to benefit from the classes. I am taking the pre-day all-day class on Wednesday and have scheduled classes on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I have probably over-booked. Not sure how much time I will have to see the show. I have a friend who usually shares a ride and a room with me, but she will not be able to go this year. Are you planning on staying in Duluth? What is your schedule?

For the SO. GA quilters, there is a quilt show in Moultrie at the arts center through Nov. 7.

I plan on being there on Saturday. Not taking any classes. Anyone interested in trying to meet up? I'll be coming in from Baton Rouge on Friday, staying in Atlanta.

I'd love that. I have a morning class and an afternoon class on Saturday, but I could meet you for lunch I'll have between 11:30 and 12:30 to eat, shop and look at quilts. Maybe we could meet at the information desk. I'll have my lap top, so I'll check e-mail during the show as I have time. I think that would be fun.

That sounds great!! I'll PM you with some info later today

I have a quilt that I entered into this show. Just mailed it out today. Wish I lived closer so I could go. You guys have a good time and enjoy. :-)
