Eight Point Star Quilt – Queen

$820.00

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 border and 362 yards of hand quilting. This beautiful quilt was hand-quilted by one Amish or Mennonite woman to ensure uniform stitching and is initialed and dated. On a queen bed, this quilt will have 22 inches of drop per side.

Measures 104″ wide 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 relaxing bed cover: it is also a masterpiece of artwork. The crafters that create our quilts choose high quality vibrant materials and arrange them into an appealing work of art. Select from our selection of over 2 hundred Amish homemade quilts for a quilt that best matches your style.

Though the fabric pieces are stitched by machine to ensure tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton materials compose the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched between those two layers, however, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting guaranties both warmth and also exceptional washing results.

The majority of our quilts are generous enough to relieve the need for a dust ruffle and pillow shams. Just as mattress heights vary, each quilt's dimensions varies. You'll find we designate the quilt's dimensions alongside the determined drop for you to compare to the sizing you want. Please do your research prior to purchasing!
