Vintage cars and quilts at Shipshewana

The photos I’ve shared are of one of the quilt displays at the Shipshewana Quilt Festival. I think it is a unique experience to see the quilts and cars at one time.

I’ve just left Shipshewana and it’s certainly with a degree of sadness. Its left me with a desire to return and explore more.

We arrived at about 8.00 pm last Sunday. It was still light and as we made our way to the hotel, we passed a number of Amish buggies on the road. They hold a fascination for me. The stark black shape of the buggy as opposed to the beauty and fluidity of the horses trotting. The red sign on the back for safety is a design element and somehow I need to work it into a project.
