Visit to Gettysburg, PA and Lancaster, PA areas

Wilkie like the other poster said.

This one is much more obscure and time dependent. If you will be in the area Aug 27th to September 4th there is a historical steam engine show. Its not just steam engines. There is a guy with a steam powered saw mill set up and milling lumber all day. I have just watched for hours in awe! There is also a flea market that you can sometimes fine some good ole hand tools or farm equipment. Some of these guys are really serious about their farm equipment and have 50+ year old stuff looking factory new. It looks like the adjacent park may be closed, if not you can send in the wife and kids and have at the show all day. Anyway, see

Good thing I didn't know about that 2 yrs ago! We visited Lancaster area for a weekend, and I'm afraid if I'd known about Wilke, things would have gotten a lot more expensive than the $600+ quilt!

Woodcraft is on Jonestown rd. rte 22 off I83

Searcher I was just there yesterday

You was buying Amish.

Dey ain't no Amish at Wilke.

Dey is Chiwanese at Wilke.

Worked for a company based in downtown York once.

Great tavern across the street that had been in operation since the mid 1700's.

If you plan to visit the Gettysburg battle field, you want to allow at least a full day, especially if you are a history buff.

Yup!

I hate to tell you this but your quilt was likely built by an Asian, especially if its an appliqué style. here is a link, The page doesn't display properly for me but you can still read the text. The Amish do traditional quilting and farm out appliqué work to the Hmong (From China and Vietnam)

This one is not an appliqué style. It's a traditional quilt, and SWMBO tells me it was closer to $800.
