C Jean Horst Quilts

Celebrating 38 Years!

While there are many fine quilt designers in Lancaster, C Jean Horst’s quilt creations stand out from all the others. Her ability to select fabrics and create custom quilts is phenomenal.

Jean tells how her mother taught her, at the age of five, to use her sewing machine to make doll clothes. She has been sewing ever since. Yet it was on a family vacation much later that she first discovered the creative and colorful world of quilts. In spite of living in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, the quilt capitol of the world, she purchased her first pattern while on vacation in Tennessee.

Her hobby has now become a meaningful business of 38 years. She works with many ambitious women, who piece, appliqué, mark, quilt, and bind quilts and crib quilts, creating heirlooms for tomorrow and functional art for today. She has had the privilege of designing and managing some very special projects. Of special note she designed the Governor’s Star – an original quilt for Governor Tom Ridge, and a millennium quilt “It’s About Time” for an American Cancer Society raffle (which raised over $30,000!) as well as doing quilts for a Disney Movie “Utterly Beloved.”

  • The Lone Star quilt is likely one of the most recognizable quilt patterns to Americans.  It is also one of the oldest patterns.  The Amish love the large central star pattern and make their fair share of them.  Its  a beautiful but difficult design to get all the corners meeting at the points of the diamonds.  This is a beautiful example of precision piecing with the use of 12 quilters fabrics for the star. The backing of the quilt is done with a cream solid color fabric and the hand quilting stitches are counted at 8 per inch.  A Beauty of a quilt with the extra quilting designs that show up so lovely on the bed top as well as the side drop.
