Quilt-a-Memory Package
Cambridge There’s a reason the art of quilting has been rekindled in this country—because it gathers friends and families together not only to make a quilt, but also to make a memory. As part of this getaway, your group of three to five quilters will enjoy the charming atmosphere of the Cottage Inspirations Quilt Shop, located within steps of your accommodations. A special project will be customized for your group. Keep the creative juices flowing while you relax and make yourselves at home at the Cambridge B&B—a spacious 100-year-old home listed on the National Register of Historic Places and recently named a Hidden Treasure by Heritage Nebraska. Share stories, recipes, and photos with others, and get caught up in the relaxed pace of small-town life. Take a refreshing dip in the public pool in nearby McKinley Park or set out on a quick 10-minute jaunt to our beautiful lake. The Quilt-a-Memory Package is $149 (plus tax) per person (three-person minimum) and includes: • One night of lodging (single occupancy) with breakfast at the Cambridge B&B • A quilting class (with take-home project kit) at Cottage Inspirations Quilt Shop • Lunch (eat-in or catered) from Shirley K’s Coffee Shop For more information or to make reservations, call Gloria Hilton at 308-697-3220, e-mail her at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
