Fun in Shipshewana

Hello Everyone

I spent last week in Shipshewana, Indiana, at our semi annual Jane Stickle Retreat.  The weather was beautiful all week.  I was able to get up close and personal with some of the horse and buggies.

I shopped at Lolly's.


Their fabrics are just gorgeous.  


Here are just some of the black and white and red fabrics.  


Here's a wide shot of Yoders Department Store.  Yes.  There's lots more fabric here.  


Rebecca's Arts and Antique Shop on Morton Street.  I was there twice.  She has lots of quilts, quilt tops, and quilt blocks.




I own several of the baskets you see here and quite a few jars of the Amish Apple Butter and different kinds of jams.


This week has been really busy.  I have photos of our Friday night show and tell, but I'm leaving bright and early tomorrow morning (6 am), for a weekend in Paducah to see the quilt show there so I'll post more when I get back.  

I hope you are all finding some time to stitch.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit.

  8. Wishing you a safe and happy quilting adventure - Lolly's & Yoder's are both on my bucket list and must return to Paducah at least one more time - have not been there since 1999 - long overdue!

  9. My one and only time shopping at Lolly's happened this past summer. I could have spent a lot more time and a lot more money there than I did. But I can assure you, I came out with bunches of fat quarters and some yardage. Wish I lived nearby it as I would be a regular customer. Well, I don't want to experience winter a snow, so maybe I would like to live nearby in the summer.
