Twinkling Star Quilt – Queen

$785.00

The Twinkling Star Quilt is a beautiful pattern with one lone star in the center and many small stars arranged to twinkle around it. Star patterns are some of the oldest quilt patterns, but great precision is needed to make all the star points meet and lie flat! This quilt was hand-stitched with 333 yards of thread by one Amish lady to ensure uniform stitches. This quilt is initialed and dated. On a queen bed, this quilt will have a 19 inch drop.

Measures 98″ wide x 114″ 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 blanket: it is also a piece of artwork. The artisans who create our quilts select top-notch colorful fabrics and organize them in an eye-catching work of art. Pick from our selection of over two hundred Amish homemade quilts for a quilt that perfectly complements your taste.

Although the pieces of fabric are stitched by machine to make sure tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton materials make up the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched between those two layers, nevertheless, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting warranties both heat and excellent washing results.

You will find our quilts to be relatively generous in length and width. In fact, almost all of our quilts are large enough to reduce the need for a dust ruffle or pillow shams. Just as mattress heights vary, each quilt's overall size can be different as well. You'll find we specify the quilt's measurements with the determined drop for you to compare to the overall size you want to have. Kindly do your measuring ahead of making a purchase!

Are our quilts washable?

Yes, our quilts are indeed washable in a washing machine! We advise adhering to these guidelines for the best care of your heirloom quilt:

Did you know?

Over the centuries, quite a number of techniques have been perfected to make it less complicated for quilters to sew multi-angled quilts together. One of these methods is called paper piecing, which is routinely used to put together the intricate angles of the Mariner's Compass quilts. Paper piecing, as it title implies, uses an unique paper pattern on which the material segments are stitched. The pattern directs the quilter to perfectly stitch the pieces together so that the finalized top will lie out flat. Strategies such as this are an excellent aid to our quilters!
