This booth is Hinkletown Sewing Machines - located five minutes from our inn.
Even if you don’t plan to take any classes, the joy of seeing all of the quilt entries is worth the
Some of my favorites didn’t make first or second place, but I’ll share them with you here...
I have always loved quilted jackets, and watching the parade of women with their jackets was fascinating – each one seemed to get prettier. By the time we made it to the third floor, I wanted one—badly. Well, not badly enough to devote the time required to quilt one...that will have to wait for a day when I’ll have more time for hobbies other than running a bed and breakfast!
The show will continue for three more days. That’s time enough to make your plans and head to Lancaster. If you go, wear comfortable shoes – the show spans four floors at the Lancaster County Convention Center and Liberty Place. At the Convention Center, I recommend using the escalators to avoid the lines at the elevator. There is cushy seating in the lobby of the Convention Center....you’ll be looking for it later. If you stay with us, I’ll share my secret parking places – within easy walking distance of the LCCC.
If you happen to head out on Thursday, there’s a free party for all quilters at Mulberry Art Studios from 6:00 pm to 8:30pm. I’ll be there – our bed and breakfast association, along with its partners, is hosting it. There will be lots of food, beverages, music, free shoulder massages—and yes, more quilters and quilts.

I loved looking at your site! Hubby and I plan on visiting Lancaster in March as an early vacation. I wanted to visit the quilt museum. Anything else fun going on in March? I have wanted to visit Lancaster my whole life!
Thanks, Gwen in Indiana
Gwen - We'd love for you to visit. March is a busy time - two quilt shows, the start of mud season sales (auctions to benefit local fire departments), and the opening of local greenhouses. See our http://www.artistinn.com/thingstodo.htm page for a complete listing or give us a call!
