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 362 yards of hand quilting. This beautiful quilt was hand-quilted by one Amish or Mennonite woman to ensure uniform stitching and is initialed and dated. On a queen bed, this quilt will have 22 inches of drop per side.

Measures 104″ wide 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 cozy blanket: it is also a masterpiece of art. The crafters that create our quilts select high quality vibrant materials and organize them into an eye-catching masterpiece. Choose from our selection of over two hundred Amish handmade quilts for a quilt that perfectly matches your taste.

While the fabric pieces are sewn with each other by machine to ensure tighter sewing, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton materials make up the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched in between those 2 layers, nevertheless, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting warranties both warmth and also exceptional washing outcomes.

Just about all of our quilts are sizable enough to relieve the need for a dust ruffle or pillow shams. Just as mattress heights are different, each quilt's sizing is different. You'll find we designate the quilt's dimensions with the estimated drop for you to compare to the dimensions you are looking for. Definitely do your homework ahead of your purchase!

Yes, our quilts are indeed washable in a washing machine! We recommend adhering to these guidelines for ideal handling results:

Did you know?

Every step of the quilt-making process requires a certain woman's competence. Each of our women focuses on either assembling or quilting. Therefore, a minimum of two ladies are associated with making each quilt. The ladies who sew the tops together concentrate on assembling specific quilt patterns. Considering that each quilter's stitches are different, only one lady does the quilting per quilt. This system enables each woman to become a professional in her field.
