Indiana Amish Quilts
The Amish woman responsible for these quilts call them her Quilts Remembered Collection. They capture her memories of the coloring and designs of quilts made and used by Midwestern Amish over the last hundred years. Each is a scaled down version of the original bed quilt (about half as wide and tall) but retains the entire design of the original. Consequently each of these quilts has lots of quilting and smaller than usual patchwork pieces.
Evidently as the Amish moved west from Pennsylvania to the Midwest they relaxed their restrictions on the use of colored fabric and freely use brighter sunny colors that the Amish in Pennsylvania won’t use. Traditional quilt designs made using this bigger palette of colors are quite distinctive!
One Amish woman, who lives in northeast Indiana (Indiana Amish Country!) makes all the quilt tops and she has a few of her Amish neighbors do the quilting. We have been impressed with the care and attention to detail they have shown in making these quilts.
We want you to be aware that the Indiana Amish quilts take at least a week to ship from the order date. We appreciate your patience, and assure you they are well worth the wait.

Truly amazing very special little quilt that would be wonderful as a wall-hanging or a very elegant crib quilt. Look at all that quilting and the trapunto grapes and leaves. We have seen quilts in museums that utilized trapunto, but we have never before had such a quilt to offer for sale! The fabric is a traditional rustic (but soft) cream white cotton muslin. Much of the quilting was laid out free hand rather than with templates giving it the look of an antique quilt. The quilting design was laid out by an Amish woman from northeastern Indiana and the abundant fine quilting was done by an Amish neighbor. The quilt available does not have the golden French knot nibs as pictured here.
