My BFF and I are attending a class held by Kaye England next weekend. And, of course, we'd like to visit some nice quilt shops while we're there. Any suggestions????? Thanks!! :D

Here are some others:

Thanks so much for the info!!! I've printed out all the directions, etc. :D

We'll be arriving on Thursday, March 4th and leaving on Monday morning. I don't know how much "free" time we'll have but I doubt that we'll make it to the quilt show. (Wish we could!!!)

I'm SEW excited. I haven't been out of town (except for a couple of day trips) in several years so this will be an extra special treat for me! :D

Thanks to everyone who took their time to recommend a quilt shop for us to visit! The one we chose was the Back Door simply because it was closer to the hotel where we were staying and it didn't look too difficult to get there. (If it wasn't for the "little lady" on the dash telling us where to turn and "recalculating" when we didn't, we'd still be up there driving around trying to get home!)

We went the Thursday evening we arrived and spent over 2 hours shopping. They had some batiks HALF PRICE!! Below is a couple of pictures of some of my treasures..... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Aren't these gorgeous?
