Twinkling Star Quilt – Queen

The Twinkling Star Quilt is a beautiful pattern with one lone star in the center and many small stars arranged to twinkle around it. Star patterns are some of the oldest quilt patterns, but great precision is needed to make all the star points meet and lie flat! This quilt was hand-stitched  by one Amish lady to ensure uniform stitches. This quilt is initialed and dated. On a queen bed, this quilt will have a 21 inch drop.

Measures 102″ 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 only a cozy blanket: it is also a piece of art. The artists who design our quilts select quality vivid materials and arrange them in an attractive work of art. Choose from our selection of over 2 hundred Amish homemade quilts for a quilt that perfectly matches your style.

While the pieces of fabric are stitched by machine to ensure tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton fabrics make up the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched in between those two layers, nonetheless, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting warranties both warmth as well as exceptional washing results.

You will find our quilts to be remarkably sizable in length and width. In fact, almost all of our quilts are sizable enough to reduce the necessity for a dust ruffle and pillow shams. Just as mattress heights are different, each quilt's dimensions is different as well. We list the quilt's dimensions along with the determined drop for you to compare to the measurements you need. Definitely do your homework prior to purchasing!

Amish Handmade Quilt Trivia

For hundreds of years, quite a few strategies have been developed to make it much simpler for quilters to piece multi-angled quilts together. One of these solutions is paper piecing, which is commonly applied to put together the intricate angles of the Mariner's Compass quilts. Paper piecing, as it title indicates, uses a particular paper pattern on which the fabric cuts are sewn. The pattern guides the seamstress to properly stitch the pieces together so that the finished top will lie out evenly. Solutions of this sort as this are a fabulous support to our quilt-makers!
