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 merely a comfortable bedspread: it is also a piece of artwork. The artists that develop our quilts select quality colorful materials and arrange them in an eye-catching masterpiece. Select from our stock of over two hundred Amish handmade quilts for a quilt that best matches your style.

Though the pieces of fabric are stitched by machine to ensure 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, nevertheless, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting guaranties both heat and exceptional washing results.

The majority of our quilts are sizable enough to reduce the necessity for a dust ruffle and pillow shams. Just as bed heights vary, each quilt's proportions is different. You'll find we designate the quilt's dimensions along with the estimated drop for you to compare to the size you want to have. Please do your measuring before making a purchase!
