Quilt shows in Kansas
Quilting in Kansas
Kansas has its own quilting community, traditions, and shops. Kansas is flatter than a pancake, according to a 2003 scientific study. 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 Kansas 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.
