Bus Trip to the Shipshewana Quilt Festival

The wheels on the bus go round and round all the way to the Shipshewana Quilt Festival! Join the Towne Squares Quilt Club on Saturday, June 27, 2015 for a one-day bus trip to the Quilt Festival. Once the bus arrives in Shipshewana, you are on your own to “ooh and ah” over approximately 200 juried quilts. Vendors from around the country will also showcase new and exciting products at the Vendor Show. There are many local eateries and quaint shops in the area surrounding the Festival including the Yoder Department Store and The Cotton Corner quilt shops.

On the way to Shipshewana, the bus will stop at Fabrics & Friends Quilt Shoppe in Roanoke, IN. This unique shop is a Victorian house containing over 10,000 bolts of fabric such as Moda, Robert Hoffman, batiks, Michael Miller’s Fairy Frost, flannels, and novelty, patriotic and season prints. There is something for everyone. This quilt shop is not to be missed!
