Going to Paducah what's not to Miss
#41
More Pictures:
Some of the galleries where the show is held.
You'll also see groups who wear silly hats (this makes it easier for friends to find each other in the crowds)
Eleanor Burns at one of her shows.
The little painted Featherweights are terribly expensive, but they are absolutely quilters eye candy. (I have a plain black one that I gave about 1/3 of what these cost, but they still make me drool)
The last image is in the lobby of the Convention Center. some of you were asking about what to do with your packages. The left side of the image is the package check where Paducah Volunteers (in the red coats) will make sure all of your treasures are kept safe and out of the way.

Be sure to watch out for Quilt Man and his trusty sidekick Bobbin. They are quilter superheroes and ride their segways around town. https://www.facebook.com/paducah.quilt.man?fref=ts

There will be an Underground Railroad quilt show at the Hotel Metropolitan. The Metropolitan is now a museum, but was once the hotel where black entertainers and dignitaries stayed in Paducah during the segregation years. The museum will also be hosting a fish fry, I believe.

Here's the info on the Grand Rivers quilt show. These are not the 'competition quilts' but mostly quilts that regular local quilters have made. http://www.grandrivers.org/grand-riv...ilt-show.shtml Audience votes for best one. This is right across the street from Pattis 1880's restaurant. http://www.pattis1880s.com/
