It is a fantastic show! I average a trip to Lancaster almost every month. Since I live south of Pittsburgh, I can make that drive within 2.5 hours roughly. SSShhhh, don't tell the police. I love helping people who attend the quilt show, letting them know some "secrets" and "treasures" in the Lancaster area. From food, to sites, to entertainment, and best of all quilt shops! Happy to give advice for anyone attending the first time. Contact me off the list. Safe travels to all who are going!
