We have a small group (8-12) who try to get away in late February or early March for a weekend in Shipshewanna...those that don't feel like sewing...shop! We are planning to go mid-march to a new bed and breakfast designed especially for quilters and scrapbookers. The basement area is all outfitted with tables, plugs, ironing boards, and lots of overhead lighting... it should be fun. The highlight of the weekend (besides being with a group of quilting buddies I don't get to see often) is dinner in an Amish home.
