Going to Shipshewana, IN--any recommendations?
Greetings,
I will be going to Shipshewana, IN next week and wondered if anyone had recommendations about quilt shops, fabric etc. Long before I was interested in quilting I remember there was a lot of fabric there but that was about it.
Thanks,
Pat

I would make sure and go the the museum exhibit close to Yoders, Menno-hof. It is truly educational about the history of the Amish/Mennonites. I also enjoy a trip into the big bulk food store. Some really interesting products and folk remedies. Take a list of fabric you need and samples of colors to match.
Get a copy of the Budget, a weekly Amish newspaper, and read all the letters sent in from reporters around the world.
I think it is $1.

I've been wanting to make a trip up there, too. I'm bookmarking this thread so I'll know what not to miss when I get there! Hope your trip goes well and you find lots of cool things to bring home.
