The Eight Point Star Quilt is an intricate star pattern that traditionally allowed a woman to showcase her needlework skills. Precision is extremely important in piecing stars for a neat finished product! Out of the hundreds of star patterns, one of the most popular is the Eight Point Star. It includes a scalloped border and many yards of hand quilting. This beautiful quilt was hand-quilted with 290 yards of thread by one Amish or Mennonite woman to ensure uniform stitching. On a queen bed, this quilt will have 18.5 inches of drop per side.
Measures 97″ x 113″ 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 comfortable bedspread: it is also a piece of artwork. The artisans who design our quilts select top quality colorful fabrics and organize them into a captivating masterpiece. Choose from our selection of over two hundred homemade quilts for a quilt that perfectly complements your taste.
Although the pieces of fabric are sewn with each other by machine to guarantee 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 2 layers, nonetheless, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting guaranties both warmth as well as outstanding washing results.
You will find our quilts to be really generous in length and width. In fact, nearly all of our quilts are generous enough to eliminate the need for a dust ruffle or pillow shams. Just as bed heights differ, each quilt's size can be different as well. You'll find we publish the quilt's measurements in addition to the calculated drop for you to compare to the proportions you want. Please do your measuring before buying!As a matter of fact, our quilts are undoubtedly washable in a washing machine! We recommend the following guidelines for best results:
Each and every step of the quilt-making process needs a specific woman's expertise. Each of our ladies specializes in either piecing or quilting. At least 2 ladies are involved in making each quilt. The women who stitch the tops with each other specialize in assembling specific quilt patterns. Since each quilter's stitches differ, just one lady does the quilting per quilt. This system enables each lady to end up being a specialist in her work.
We used one of the two quilts for our guest room.
Yes we absolutely love our quilt and use it daily. It was bought as a Christmas present to ourselves.
We LOVE our quilt. What could be better than a hand-made heart quilt for Valentine’s Day. It will come out of the closet in a couple weeks or so and I’ll send a picture. Thanks.
I love my new quilt. The colors are so pretty! Thank you all so much. I know there are a lot of hours spent on it. ?
I really love this quilt. I have such a great appreciation for all the work that went into the making.
Thanks! The quilt is gorgeous and we cherish it.
My husband loves the ocean, we live 1 hour away, so I bought this quilt “for him”. Our bedroom has several nautical items in it and is painted a sea foam blue. We love it and we pray for the quilter of the Sailor’s compass quilt nightly.
I just couldn’t leave Pennsylvania’s Amish Country without taking home a hand-quilted quilt from Family Farm Quilts. I looked through at least 50 options before deciding on this gorgeous Surf Song design.
I think it’s absolutely perfect in every way! <3
I hand the privilege of contacting Family Farm Handcrafts inquiring about a King Size Quilt. I first talked with a young lady by the name of Regina , who went out of her way to help me, which encouraged me and I did not look any further on the web to purchase. A few days later, I had the privilege of talking with Katie, who , although she did not have what I was looking for In her shop, went out of her way to help me come up with The Spin Star Quilt, in the colors I was looking for and in no time, this beautiful quilt was on its way to my daughter, who absolutely loved the quilt! Not only was the quilt beautiful, the price was great also! I guarantee you if you are in the market for a beautiful Amish quilt, hand made and at a beautiful price, plus they have someone who can make curtains or valances to match, you will want to contact Katie at Family Farm Handcrafts in East Earl Pa, near Lancaster, Pa. God Bless You Katie and may your business prosper!
I love my purple Lone Star Quilt…it was a big investment for me! I bought a Twin size that was listed as fitting a Queen and it did (using my ruffle). Thank you for having accurate measurements and good photos AND updated notes on availability. I found one a couple of years ago on another site out in PA and I ordered it and my card was charged. Then, I was called to say it wasn’t available and would be 6 months if I wanted it made. Your emails were great and was surprised by the fast delivery. PS. My grandma made lots of quilts – log cabin, lone star and many others about 25+ years ago….your quality is on par with hers.
This is the second quilt our family has purchased from your store since August. We remain amazed at the craftsmanship of the finished product. These are absolutely works of art. And to have them initialed/dated on the quilt itself means so much to us as well as knowing the name of the quilter. We will definitely recommend your shop to others that are looking for beautiful quality products.
I can’t begin to express our joy when we received our spin star quilt. It is absolutely gorgeous! Please forward our gratitude to Verna Miller for all the time and effort she put into making our beautiful quilt. We will cherish it always!
We absolutely LOVE our quilt!!! In fact, I have gone back to your site multiple times to see if I could find accent pillows and/or curtains to match!
