DAY 3 NASHVILLE – PADUCAH
We’re off to Paducah, Kentucky, to shop
ahead of the crowds at the original Hancock’s
Fabric Store, advertised as the nation’s
largest. The cavernous warehouse stocks
thousands of fabrics, plus notions, books,
trims, patterns … and great “Sale” tables. We’ll
check into our convenient hotel just minutes
from the granddaddy of all quilt shows.
Tonight, enjoy a sneak preview of legendary
QuiltWeek Paducah and its vendors before
it opens to the public. B
DAY 4 PADUCAH
It’s opening day at the
American Quilter’s Society
show and contest! Spend it
admiring hundreds of quilts
on display and shopping
for antique quilts, wearable art, books, craft
and sewing supplies, fabrics, buttons, trims,
pattern and more! B D
DAY 5 PADUCAH
Return to the show at leisure (your ticket
is included), join a pre-booked class or
explore Quilt City USA., where shops join in
a townwide celebration. From the old 5&10
to the candy shop, windows throughout this
turn-of-the-century town are decorated with
quilts. Join quilters and crafters from around
the world for trolley rides, sidewalk sales,
church bazaars and shopping for local crafts,
antiques and collectibles. B
DAY 6 PADUCAH
Ready for more? The annual Rotary Club
Quilt Show displays about 40 antique quilts,
Mississippi
Alabama
Georgia
and vendors are carefully selected for
discriminating shoppers. During your afternoon at leisure, perhaps visit the National
Quilt Museum (your admission is pre-paid)
showcasing over 200 quilts. Tonight,
exchange addresses with your new travel
friends at our savory Farewell Dinner B D
DAY 7 NASHVILLE – TOUR ENDS
Returning to Nashville, visit Opryland Hotel’s
massive domed conservatories where winding
tree-draped pathways lead past waterfalls and
meandering waterways. Over two acres of
Conservatory Gardens are devoted solely to
tropical plants and another two are filled with
a waterfall cascading into a 12,000-square-foot
indoor lake. B
