DAY-BY-DAY ITINERARY
DAY 1: ELKHART ARRIVAL – TOUR BEGINS
Arrive in Elkhart, Indiana, and make yourself at home before meeting your Tour Manager
and fellow quilting enthusiasts at this evening’s Welcome Meeting. Take a little time to
explore the surroundings and get excited for the days ahead. As you settle
in, spend time admiring the local art installations that capture the
spirit of this charming city.
DAY 2: SHIPSHEWANA
After breakfast, explore charming downtown
Shipshewana and start shopping for quilting cottons
and supplies at The Cotton Corner. Next, at Yoder
Department Store, shop for handmade Amish
goods, then browse the luscious fabrics and quilts at
Lolly’s Fabrics. After an Amish rug-weaving demo,
join the Amish Quilts trunk show and Quilting
Bee. Don’t forget to capture memorable moments
and share stories with fellow quilters. Tonight, savor a
home-cooked Amish wedding feast with a Plain family
and learn about the peace and simplicity of the Amish lifestyle
as you indulge in homemade pies for dessert. B D
