Look what we found at AQS Quilt Views and News.
"Experience the power of the quilt brought to life in eye-popping quilt-patterned gardens packed with hundreds of thousands of blooms in combination with quilt-themed murals. From May 30 to October 1, 2014, the Quilt Gardens along the Heritage Trail blanket the seven communities of Bristol, Elkhart, Goshen, Middlebury, Nappanee, Shipshewana, and Wakarusa in northern Indiana’s Amish Country. Twenty unique quilt gardens and 21 quilt art murals are all on view for free. It’s a celebration of quiltmaking traditions going back generations."
Take a look at a video from last year's gardens.
