    I will look for you!!! I will have my hair up in a pony tail for sure.
    will we all have Badges? If so, my name is Constance
    If you pay at the show, you will have an arm band. If you register in advance, you will have a name tag to wear around your neck.

    No pictures at all in the vendor booths but the quilt show quilts you can take all the pics you want. Funny: Last year one vendor told me no one wasn't allowed to stand and gaze at her vendor booth quilts. She said anyone could memorize the patterns and replicate them. I was admiring the fabric not the pattern but I smiled and spent my money elsewhere.
    Oh be sure and buy the AQS Quilt Show Book. It has a picture of every quilt entered and all the info about it. Much better than taking your own pics. I tend to take a close up of a quilt detail that interest me. You are allowed to get very close but not touch the quilts.

    Hi! This will be my third year to go. It is overwhelming! A friend and I park the car near the convention center and view all the quilts and take in all the vendors along the way. I believe you have to pre-register for the classes. There are shuttles that take you around to different buildings/shows and motels. You may want to take your own lunch; however, they do have vendors selling food outside of the convention center. Be sure and wear comfortable shoes. There is a website that will explain in more detail about the show.

    There are four of us going! I think we should come up with some way to identify anyone from this site going. How about wearing a piece of red ribbon? If we see anyone with a red ribbon we can introduce ourselves?
