    My friend and I are saving to go to Paducah in 2012. We want to take a bus trip, but haven't decided when to go? Any advice? And what should we see?

    It's a cute town and all, but I couldn't see taking a bus trip to visit at any other time than the show. ;-)

    Well, unless you're doing a multi day class at the museum or with Caryl Bryer Fallert.

    AQS Paducah show dates for 2012: April 25 – 28.

    Make your hotel reservation NOW.

    Outside of The Quilt Museum other sites are;

    Be sure to go across the river in Metropolis, Illinois. This is Superman's land. Lots of interesting stuff about Superman. There is also a huge "Dippin' Dots" ice cream parlor in Metropolis. There is a big "Dippin Dots" ice cream factory in Puducah. I am not sure if they offer tours but would be intersting to tour if they do.
