Twinkling Star Quilt – Queen

$785.00

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 with 333 yards of thread by one Amish lady to ensure uniform stitches. This quilt is initialed and dated. On a queen bed, this quilt will have a 19 inch drop.

Measures 98″ wide x 114″ 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 bedspread: it is also a masterpiece of artwork. The artisans who develop our quilts choose top quality vivid materials and arrange them into an eye-catching masterpiece. Pick from our selection of over 2 hundred handmade quilts for a quilt that perfectly enhances your style.

Although the pieces of fabric are stitched 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 between those 2 layers, however, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting guaranties both heat and excellent washing results.

You will discover our quilts to be remarkably large in length and width. The majority of our quilts are generous enough to do away with the necessity for a dust ruffle and pillow shams. Just as bed heights are different, each quilt's measurements is different as well. You'll find we list the quilt's measurements with the determined drop for you to compare to the overall size you need. Please do your research ahead of making a purchase!

Amish Homemade Quilt Trivia

Each step of the quilt-making process requires a particular lady's know-how. Every one of our ladies focuses on either piecing or quilting. Therefore, at the very least 2 ladies are entailed in making each quilt. The ladies that sew the tops with each other concentrate on assembling particular quilt patterns. Because each quilter's stitches vary, only one lady does the quilting per quilt. This system permits each lady to become a specialist in her work.
