It is that time! Time to register for classes for the Road to California Quilt Show in January. Registration actually started Sunday. I am all set to be there from Wednesday through Friday, and I am already filled with anticipation!
If you are a beginner quilter, I highly recommend attending a class at a quilt show. "Why?", you ask. Several reasons:
- Because the shows are big events, they can draw in teachers from around the globe that your local quilt shop or guild might not have access to.
- When you are not in your class, you can tour the fabulous exhibits which are full of awe and wonder, and can't help but inspire you
- You might make a friend
- You might make 2 friends
- Shopping opportunities abound (if you are into that sort of thing).
- You will learn SOMETHING, and it might not be what you expected
- Uh, it's fun!
If you are wondering what happened to the Beginner's Quilt Along progress, I will resume making blocks as soon as I return from vacation. Who knows, you might even get more than one since I need to do a bit of catching up!
Are any of you planning on attending the Road to California Quilt Show?

okay, so you totally have me considering this. I was thinking about a quilt show trip but you may have been the push I needed to really and truly think about it. Still in the early dreaming/starting to plan stages, but seriously considering going to this one. Thanks for the encouragement.
