    Festival of Quilts, England 7-10 August 2014 Are you coming?

    Last year there was some discussion on the forum about the Festival of Quilts to be held at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham, England from 7th-10 August 2014.
    A few overseas friends said that they hoped to come this year. I hope that some of you are still able to make it and that we can meet up. Birmingham has an airport and also excellent train links.

    Lorchen is planning to be there all week, as she helps set up, and I will be there from 7-10th August 2104. Please contact me if you do plan to come.

    The website for the show is http://www.thefestivalofquilts.co.uk


    In leafy Berkshire, south of England.

      I look forward to seeing you again, Wendy. It will be only the second time I will have spent more than one day there which I am really looking forward to, as there is so much to see and do.

            My friend Janet and I have flight and accommodation booked but still have to book tickets for the show itself. I was looking on the website and it seems you can only buy a 2-day pass? I hope to meet lots of TQSers there, very exciting.

                    Rita, You can buy one day tickets or two day tickets and then can use a mixture of both if you are going to be there for more than two days. Check out the mini group and group tickets also if there is more than one of you attending. For mini group with is 4x day ticket with if bought in advance work out at £11.50 each and are non day specific, or a 10 person group which work out at £10 each. However most of the cheaper and group tickets need to be booked in advance via telephone. They seem to have various options but the 'on the day' tickets are more expensive. It isn't clear on the website if they ship tickets overseas although they seem to do etickets. If enough people are interested I may be able to do a group booking to cut the ticket costs for us all. Perhaps anyone interested would email me with the days they need tickets for and I can try and put a booking together if that is helpful.

                      Pam, your offer is very good, but I get my tickets via a Danish group I could have traveled with if I had not been so fast on deciding to book. That's one case where I wish I had known.

                        I had another look at the website and we will get a mini-group ticket so don't worry about it Pam. Hope to see you there.

                            I hadn't planned on staying over night. I need to be there on Sunday so I can pick up the 2 quilts I entered into the show. Not the juried part. One is my HST exchange quilt I entered into the group category. The other I need to get done! It is a BOM I started back in 2003. Half done with the quilting. I love deadlines...I...will...finish...
