Quilting in Indiana
Indiana has its own quilting community, traditions, and shops. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is the largest spectator sporting facility in the world. For local quilters, the state's active guilds run annual or biennial shows that are smaller than the national circuit but often easier to attend.
Shopping Before (or Instead of) the Show
Vendor booths at Indiana shows carry the same kinds of fabric you can shop online any time — handy if the show is months away or you can't make the trip.
