Starting its 23 year in the historical district of Barrington, IL, the Touch of Amish shop was proud to have been featured as one of ten outstanding quilt shops in the Spring/Summer 2007 issue of the Better Homes and Gardens Quilt Sampler.      

 The dedication of the staff to continuously present outstanding quilt projects is evident as you view the many beautiful quilting displays throughout the shop.   The shop offers something special and enticing for everyone—be they a novice beginner or an accomplished, experienced quilter.  You are in for a treat when you see the large variety of delectable fabric choices, a multitude of new books and individual patterns, the latest notions, threads, and battings, and the latest sewing techniques and methods presented in the classes.  Don’t hesitate to ask any of the staff for help in selecting fabric or patterns that can be used either in a class project or at home.  As your sewing machine “hums” throughout 2009, you have a wonderful opportunity to meet new friends, learn the latest quilting methodologies, and create a “quilting treasure.”  Happy Quilting!!!!!
