tPERFECT PLACE FOR QUILTERS Amish Country is not only a wonderful place for finished quilts—some of the finest quilters live and work here throughout the year. It is also a destination for quilting supplies and meeting other quilters. Whether you come to admire or participate, there is enough inspiration here to extend your stay an extra day or two!

Quilting retreats happen regularly in Amish Country. Call the Holmes County Tourism Bureau at 330-674-3975 for a schedule of upcoming quilting events.

THE ART o MAKING FURNITURE Many of the woodworkers and furniture craftsmen in Amish Country have been practicing their craft for decades. Whether functional or decorative, the work done by local furniture makers is certainly an art form of its own. To request specific information about Amish Country’s furniture builders, please contact the Holmes County Tourism Bureau at 330-674-3975 or info@visitamishcountry.com.
