The really big thing about this event -- what makes it DIFFERENT from every other sewing event in the country -- is the location. It's actually IN THE NANCY'S NOTIONS WAREHOUSE. They move everything for the weekend. AND they hang a huge quilt show. AND they use six or seven other locations around town. The churches, schools, skating rinks. Then -- THEY BUS PEOPLE from place to place. IT IS SOOO COOL...
Even the hallways are decorated with quilts.
