Homemade quilts combine the warmth of a bed cover with a unique story told by the quilters from Lancaster County, PA.

Some quilts involve hundreds of hours and thousands of stitches to create a unique patchwork quilt that will last for generations.

Amish Handmade Quilt Trivia

The term handmade is commonly utilized to define crafts created by an artisan instead of a manufacturing facility. Due to the fact that it is not mass-produced, each handmade quilt is distinct. Nonetheless, not all the stitching in a handcrafted quilt is done manually. Just as the woodcrafter makes use of mechanical devices to create his workmanship, our seamstresses utilize various devices to craft these quilts. The seamstress cuts her items with a rotating knife as well as stitch them together on the sewing machine. The quilter deals with only needle, string, and thimble to quilt numerous tiny stitches throughout the quilt. Handmade is a gift: it is the gift of time as well as skill to produce a product uniquely for you.
