Do you feel the prices at the tent sale make it worth while to travel there from, for instance, Florida? Just wondering if I should include this in my future dream plans.

they sent me the wrong fabric one time, so i called them to get the correct stuff sent.. it was a 3 yd cut, i asked them if i needed an ra (return authorization) number or anything else to send it back... they told me to keep it with their apologies

can't ask for better service than that!

Arrive early in the morning. Some get there around 3AM. :shock: I love the make your own scrap bags. Whatever fits in a ziptop bag they give you is 5$, I get my money's worth for those. The fabric on bolts under the tents are about half price and they have many accessories marked down too as well as patterns. IMHO the patterns in the sale area last year were not discounted as much as the year before. Ah, well, the DR. says more fiber! :lol:

Goodness with all the NH and New England shoppers we might have to meet there sometime.

I've never been to the tent sale and I'm only 24 miles away as the crow flies (much further if the crow has to drive around the lake however!). Never really wanted to deal with the crowd I guess. I may just have to put it on my 'things to do before I die' list, eh? ;-)

I have just recently begun ordering from Keepsake and now I am really hooked. Their service is some of the best, and my orders are ALWAYS accurate and just absolutely breathtaking. I am jealous of you lucky quilters who live near there.. I guess it's a good thing that I do not. What can I say, I'm a sucker for a pretty bolt of cloth!

I have ordered lots from Keepsake always get the order in good time, customer service is good. I find it very cheap, as I live in Australia and our fabric is at least twice their prices, don't mind the extra postage!!! Most of the fabric I choose I would never see here.

There are 4 of us ladies that take a trip every year. This year we went to Maine and I told them we had to stop at Keepsake!! We stayed about 2 hours away so made it a day trip. When I walked in the door all I could do is look and drool! I walked around and gauked for about 30 min. before I even thought about what I wanted to buy. It is truly a beautiful experience that everyone should have at least once. A couple years ago our vacation was to Wisconsin Dells and we made a side trip to Nancy's Notions. I thought it was a really nice store until I went to Keepsake. I still shop both catalogs but the Keepsake store was the best shopping experience.
