The Ancient Star quilt is handmade by a Pennsylvania Amish woman. The star pattern is of the oldest and most familiar of all the traditional quilt patterns, but great precision is needed to make all the star points meet and lie flat! This Ancient Star king size quilt is sewn in antique colors of navy, green, burgundy, and tan. The quilt is hand-quilted with love by one Pennsylvania lady to insure uniform stitches. On a queen-size bed, this quilt will have approximately 18 inches of drop per side.
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 bedspread: it is also a piece of art. The crafters that develop our quilts pick top-notch vivid fabrics and arrange them in an attractive work of art. Pick from our stock of over two hundred homemade quilts for a quilt that best enhances your style.
Although the fabric pieces are stitched by machine to ensure tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton fabrics compose the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched between those two layers, however, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting warranties both warmth and superb washing outcomes.
The majority of our quilts are large enough to relieve the necessity for a dust ruffle and pillow shams. Just as bed heights vary, each quilt's proportions can be different. We list the quilt's measurements with the determined drop for you to compare to the size you want. It is important to do your homework ahead of making a purchase!Yes, these quilts are indeed washable in a washing machine! We suggest adhering to these guidelines for best results:
