Eight Point Star Quilt – Queen

$820.00

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 317 yards of thread by one Amish or Mennonite woman to ensure uniform stitching and is initialed and dated. On a queen bed, this quilt will have 20 inches of drop per side.

Measures 100″ x 115″ 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 just a comfy bedspread: it is also a piece of art. The artists who design our quilts pick high quality vibrant fabrics and organize them in an appealing masterpiece. Choose from our selection of over two hundred Amish homemade quilts for a quilt that best complements your taste.

Though the pieces of fabric are sewn together by machine to make certain tighter sewing, 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 heat and excellent washing results.

Just about all of our quilts are sizable enough to eliminate the necessity for a dust ruffle or pillow shams. Just as mattress heights vary, each quilt's sizing is different. You'll find we specify the quilt's dimensions as well as the calculated drop for you to compare to the overall size you want. Definitely do your research ahead of making a purchase!

This is why we refer to as a quilt a work of artistry!
