A weekend at Quilt Con

We spent most of the weekend at the convention center & the area surrounding the center. Retro Oaks was well located, so we could come & go easily. It’s a well equipped place that’s really cool & hip & was perfect for doing fiber work in the evenings. The neighborhood is quiet at night. I highly recommend it.
