more about the bus trip

The quilt show that my group went to last week was put on by the National Quilting Association. 
It was a good size show with lots of vendor booths for a little shopping...


There were booths selling, sewing and embroidery machines, long arm quilting machines, fabric, thread, notions, sewing furniture, rolling sewing machine bags, patterns , vintage fabrics,and more.

There were quilts every where. In the vendor booths...for inspiration...


And row after row of quilts that were entered for judging...

So amazing to see all the different designs...such creativity, precise piecing, intricate quilting patterns. 

I was inspired to buy this Australian fabric, Aboriginie designed.  Ironic, because when I visited Australia years ago, I stopped in a quilt shop to get some souvenir fabric. It was all from the United States!


The best thing about a bus trip is that we were dropped off and picked up at the door of the event center. Pretty nice for tired feet! 
Same for when we stopped to eat at Cracker Barrel on the way home.
