Have a good time girls....I'll be sitting in a whirlpool with a nice Margarita in my hand in Vegas with my BFF. She lives there, but will stay with me at the hotel. Don't worry, I will be hitting one of my favorite quilt shops in town.

Shipsawana is one of my favorite places, I haven't had a chance to go this year. I think we are going to have a wonderful time. Counting down the days and working on my spending budget.

Hi Everyone,

The time is almost here.

Let's meet at Lolly's quilt shop downtown Shipshewana, Indiana at 10:00 am around the big cutting table. Be sure to pin a piece of fabric on your top so this is our way of knowing you are a member of the quilting board site.

I will be arriving in town around 9:00 a.m.

Remember we have Lolly's quilt shop, be sure to go downstairs from Lolly's, just take elevator or stairs to the clearance room and lots of fatquarters, also downstairs is a minky room.

Also in town is Yoders Department store on the highway ( you can walk or drive there) (Lots of fabrics) and across the street from Yoders is Spectors they have some fabric and patterns (also Fabric for Amish)

When you get to town be sure to pick up a flyer to show you around the town for the map, they can be picked up at Spectors and some of the shops has them (free). There are lots of unique shops in town to visit and nice restaurants.

Across from Lolly's Fabric store is a great place to buy cool hot pretzels.

We can plan on meeting for lunch also or dinner, we can decide once we get together. Be sure to bring show and tell projects.

this will be a fun day, meet around the cutting table at 10:00 am. at Lolly's Quilt Shop on the 1st floor, we can shop til we drop (also other fabric shops in town to visit, Yoders and Spectors) along with other cool gift shops. I am calling for reservations for 1:00 am. to meet for lunch (so we can eat and have a show and tell, and anyone want to do any demonstrations please do so) after we eat we can go shopping more till we drop

be sure to pin a piece of fabric on your top so we know that you are part of the quilting board group and put your quilting board name on a paper pinned to your fabric

any questions you can pm me and I will help you out, also I can give you my cell # on the pm
