June 20, 2012 starts this year’s Shipshewana Quilt Festival.
This year’s festival is going to be an interesting one as the main attraction is Ricky Tims. He is the featured speaker for this event and he is known in the international world of quilting as an enthusiastic and encouraging teacher, an award-winning quilter and a talented and spellbinding speaker. His innovative and entertaining presentations feature live music and humor combined with scholarly insights. His quilts have been displayed worldwide and are highly regarded as excellent examples of contemporary quilts with traditional appeal.
Ricky’s show on June 20, “A Quilter and His Music” has already sold out but it looks like a second show has been added on June 21st. Hurry and get yourself registered and get your tickets for his show before they are all gone!
