Amish Homemade Quilt Trivia

The term handmade is frequently utilized to define crafts produced by a craftsman as opposed to a manufacturing facility. Because it is not mass-produced, each handmade quilt is special. Not all the stitching in a hand-made quilt is done by hand. Just as the woodcrafter uses mechanical devices to create his workmanship, our seamstresses utilize various devices to craft these quilts. The seamstress cuts her pieces with a rotary blade knife and also stitch them with each other on the sewing machine. The quilter deals with only needle, thimble, and also thread to quilt hundreds of tiny stitches throughout the quilt. Handmade is a gift: it is the gift of time and also skill to develop an item uniquely for you.
