April 28 I didn't schedule anything so we could explore Paducah. Puducah is a town of 25,000 on the Ohio River. The downtown are is historic area. The National Quilt Museum is America's largest quilt museum displaying over 100 quilts. Exhibits change bi monthly. It is dedicated to "honoring today's quilter". It is in the downtown area. We enjoyed the exhibits which had the 2011 Pilgrim/Roy Challenge. We went to the Pavillon to see the quilts and vendors. All the quilts were fanastic. Of course I took alot of pictures and brought a CD of all the quilts in the show. The previous day we went to see the quilts and vendors at Circuit City and Office Max. The food tent was next to the National Quilt Museum and we had the famous Strawberry Shortcake sold by the Boy Scouts. It was real shortcake!! We went to Hancock's of Paducah which is a huge online/store. I got a great deal on a Hoffman Batiks Cozy Breaking Waves Quilt Kit valued at $69.98 for $39.98. We enjoyed looking around the downtown and the Mall area. There were alot of resturants to choice from every night. I will post some pictures of downtown and National Quilt Museum.
