It was in Raleigh, NC, only 90 minutes from me, and I had friends to go with, so why not. I’d been twice previously, in different cities, and thought it was worth going again.
The most fun part was seeing the quilt-themed clothing worn by various people.
So here are some of the fun fashions I saw:
And I bought these pieces of Kente cloth.
I’ll show you what I do with them in future.
And yes, there were many interesting quilts at QuiltCon, though I’m not sure they were the primary focus of the event. It seemed to be a huge opportunity for people to buy-buy-buy. And of course it was an opportunity to see friends.
Did you go? What did you think?
Zippy Quilts 
I’ve never been to Quiltcon but we have similar things in Australia and some have a quilt display and some have classes but does seem to be geared towards spending money. You have to go with a very firm intention to just look. I look forward to seeing what you do with that kente cloth.
Indeed! I just went to another one (more on that later) and again it was focused on sales! What I don’t quite get is paying $22.50 US for admission in order to spend more money. But the quilt displays were good.
