Begin Planning Your 2007 Quilt Show Visits
It’s not too early to jot down 2007 quilt and fiber arts shows on your calendar. See if they fit in with your travels or days off from work. My daughter has at least two she likes to visit each year, so tries to find their dates a year ahead…or at least by the time she must enter vacation time and floating holidays at work.
Most of these shows are planned a year or two in advance in order to reserve the function hall or convention center, to get the workshop teachers and speakers they desire, and to enable exhibitors to plan their schedules.
Here are a few posted in a bulletin my daughter picked up at her latest quilt show visit. You may want to jot them down in your calendar or planner.

I am looking for a place to rent a display to hold the “Quilts of Valor” for the Marine Family function in Anaheim CA July 28,2007. The booth is 10 ft by about 15 ft. If you know anywhere in the area or another resource I would appreciate the assistance. Thanks Chris
