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.

Amish Handmade Quilt Facts

The term handmade is commonly made use of to define crafts created by a craftsman in contrast to a manufacturing facility. Each handmade quilt is special due to the fact that it is not mass-produced. Nevertheless, not all the stitching in a hand-made quilt is done manually. Just as the woodcrafter makes use of mechanical tools to develop his workmanship, our seamstresses use different tools to craft these quilts. The seamstress cuts her items with a rotating blade knife and sew them together on the sewing machine. The quilter deals with just thread, thimble, and needle to quilt numerous tiny stitches throughout the quilt. Handmade is a gift: it is the gift of time and also skill to develop a thing distinctly for you.
