It is a great quilt show in a beautiful part of the country. It is amazing the places they find to hang quilts!! I went in 2009 and once many years ago. In 2009 I kept asking my dh about going, and he kept avoiding the subject. About 2 weeks before the show he said "let's go"! Well.....I knew what he didn't....about 10,000 people go to that show! We live about 15 hours away so we did need a hotel. We did, after many hours of searching online, find a hotel at the last minute, and it was a very good deal, but don't count on it. The advice about not driving into Sisters from nearby towns, is good advice, if you can take a bus, do it.
