If you are ever planning a trip to Vermont I suggest you do it during the Quilt Festival. The show opened last night (Thursday) and goes until Sunday. The quilts are absolutely amazing. I will post a few pics.
There were vendors from all over with the greatest gadgets under the sun.It was a great couple of days. I took a class that was a little chaos. I went in late and I think they were already tired and they were all going on different directions, so I left early and went on and enjoyed the show.I played with all sort of long arm machines, learn to do some fabric marbling, went to lunch with friends, played with a Bernina 830 and a Janome Horizon; what a great machine. I may send a quilt next year.
