Homemade quilts combine the warmth of a bed cover with a unique story told by the quilters from Lancaster County, PA. Every homemade quilt is as unique as the family, busy mother or Amish ladies group who uses a needle and thimble to thread stitch on the quilt. Some quilts involve hundreds of hours and thousands of stitches to create a unique patchwork quilt that will last for generations.

A quilt is not only a relaxing bed cover: it is also a masterpiece of artwork. The artists that make our quilts pick top quality vivid fabrics and organize them into an attractive masterpiece. Choose from our selection of over two hundred homemade quilts for a quilt that best enhances your taste.

While the pieces of fabric are stitched by machine to guarantee tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton fabrics make up the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched in between those 2 layers, however, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting warranties both warmth and superb washing outcomes.

The majority of our quilts are large enough to reduce the need for a dust ruffle or pillow shams. Just as mattress heights differ, each quilt's proportions can be different. You'll find we post the quilt's dimensions along with the estimated drop for you to compare to the size you want to have. Kindly do your research prior to purchasing!

Amish Homemade Quilt Trivia

Our artists maintain a remarkably significant job. They have the crucial assignment of picking out coordinating fabric materials from an almost infinite array of patterns developed by various texture designers and suppliers. Each fabric chosen is essential to the completed look of the quilt. The designer of this quilt did a fine job of picking out beautiful textures that complement each other and combine nicely. That is why then we refer to as a quilt a masterpiece of fine art!
