The Eight-Point Star Quilt is an intricate star pattern that traditionally allowed a woman to showcase her needlework skills. Precision is extremely important in piecing stars for a neat finished product! Out of the hundreds of star patterns, one of the most popular is the Eight-Point Star. It includes a scalloped black border and 475 yards of hand quilting done by only one Pennsylvania Amish or Mennonite woman to ensure even stitching. On a king bed, this quilt will have 17.5 inches of drop per side.
Measures 113″ x 115″ long.
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 cozy bed cover: it is also a piece of art. The artists who develop our quilts choose high quality vivid materials and organize them into an attractive work of art. Choose from our stock of over two hundred Amish homemade quilts for a quilt that perfectly complements your style.
Though the pieces of fabric are sewn with each other by machine to make sure tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton fabrics compose the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched in between those two layers, however, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting warranties both warmth and exceptional washing results.
You will discover our quilts to be reasonably generous in length and width. Almost all of our quilts are generous enough to remove the necessity for a dust ruffle and pillow shams. Just as mattress heights vary, each quilt's measurements varies as well. You'll find we list the quilt's measurements alongside the calculated drop for you to compare to the sizing you may need. It is important to do your research prior to making a purchase!Yes, our quilts are undoubtedly machine-washable! We recommend adhering to these guidelines for the best care of your heirloom quilt:
The term handmade is typically utilized to define crafts created by a craftsman instead of a factory. Because it is not mass-produced, each handmade quilt is unique. Nevertheless, not all the stitching in a handcrafted quilt is done by hand. Just as the woodcrafter uses mechanical tools to develop his workmanship, our seamstresses make use of numerous devices to craft these quilts. The seamstress cuts her pieces with a rotary knife as well as sew them with each other on the sewing machine. The quilter collaborates with just needle, thread, and thimble to quilt thousands of little stitches throughout the quilt. Handmade is a gift: it is the gift of time and talent to develop a thing uniquely for you.
I can’t begin to express our joy when we received our spin star quilt. It is absolutely gorgeous! Please forward our gratitude to Verna Miller for all the time and effort she put into making our beautiful quilt. We will cherish it always!
This is the second quilt our family has purchased from your store since August. We remain amazed at the craftsmanship of the finished product. These are absolutely works of art. And to have them initialed/dated on the quilt itself means so much to us as well as knowing the name of the quilter. We will definitely recommend your shop to others that are looking for beautiful quality products.
I hand the privilege of contacting Family Farm Handcrafts inquiring about a King Size Quilt. I first talked with a young lady by the name of Regina , who went out of her way to help me, which encouraged me and I did not look any further on the web to purchase. A few days later, I had the privilege of talking with Katie, who , although she did not have what I was looking for In her shop, went out of her way to help me come up with The Spin Star Quilt, in the colors I was looking for and in no time, this beautiful quilt was on its way to my daughter, who absolutely loved the quilt! Not only was the quilt beautiful, the price was great also! I guarantee you if you are in the market for a beautiful Amish quilt, hand made and at a beautiful price, plus they have someone who can make curtains or valances to match, you will want to contact Katie at Family Farm Handcrafts in East Earl Pa, near Lancaster, Pa. God Bless You Katie and may your business prosper!
I love my purple Lone Star Quilt…it was a big investment for me! I bought a Twin size that was listed as fitting a Queen and it did (using my ruffle). Thank you for having accurate measurements and good photos AND updated notes on availability. I found one a couple of years ago on another site out in PA and I ordered it and my card was charged. Then, I was called to say it wasn’t available and would be 6 months if I wanted it made. Your emails were great and was surprised by the fast delivery. PS. My grandma made lots of quilts – log cabin, lone star and many others about 25+ years ago….your quality is on par with hers.
I really love this quilt. I have such a great appreciation for all the work that went into the making.
We used one of the two quilts for our guest room.
We absolutely LOVE our quilt!!! In fact, I have gone back to your site multiple times to see if I could find accent pillows and/or curtains to match!
We LOVE our quilt. What could be better than a hand-made heart quilt for Valentine’s Day. It will come out of the closet in a couple weeks or so and I’ll send a picture. Thanks.
I love my new quilt. The colors are so pretty! Thank you all so much. I know there are a lot of hours spent on it. ?
I just couldn’t leave Pennsylvania’s Amish Country without taking home a hand-quilted quilt from Family Farm Quilts. I looked through at least 50 options before deciding on this gorgeous Surf Song design.
I think it’s absolutely perfect in every way! <3
Yes we absolutely love our quilt and use it daily. It was bought as a Christmas present to ourselves.
Thanks! The quilt is gorgeous and we cherish it.
My husband loves the ocean, we live 1 hour away, so I bought this quilt “for him”. Our bedroom has several nautical items in it and is painted a sea foam blue. We love it and we pray for the quilter of the Sailor’s compass quilt nightly.
