People from all over the world come to Lancaster Pennsylvania to purchase quilts made by Amish and Mennonite women. These Amish quilts with roots in many cultures are viewed today as quintessentially American. Most first time visitors are taken aback by the great variety of design and coloring, as well as the intricacy of quilts on display.
Not so obvious is the special way these quilts are produced. At a time when practically every textile product sold in America is made in Asia, these Amish quilts are made one at a time in people’s American homes. What’s more, these quilts are made using just the technology that was in common use 150 years ago. Because of the extensive handwork most women only take part in producing a couple of quilts each year.

Mesmerize – definitely will hold you spellbound. The charm of this fresh new quilt is fascinating and will hold your attention as it well deserves its name. The combination of 18 different fabrics are all 100% cottons and they are geometrics in neutrals, grays, and taupes. Some of the collection has a slight shimmer to them and the pattern creates a unique dimensional effect. Very unusual and has a definite modern feel to the beauty while still being a traditional quilt with hand stitching. An excellent blend of the old and the new!!

This beauty would be so fun to sleep under. I can just recall as a kid needing to take afternoon naps and wishing for a quilt just like this to stir my artistic love of fabrics and colors while I tried NOT to fall asleep. But no such quilt was on my bed. The scrappy trip around the world is done in 10″ squares with each block containing 25 small squares per block. These patches are done in 100% cotton batiks and the quilt also has a batik double border and a beautiful backing on the underside. This pattern would also be great to make in Kaffe Fassett fabrics and that idea needs to be on my to do list too. Let’s see if that will happen.

A beautiful and fresh change for a log cabin quilt! Here Jean has used her batiks in blues and paprikas to make a striking but simple log cabin, which is why she calls it Simplicity. She has made a common quilt very unique with her choice of batiks. While each patch is unique, all blocks are working together beautifully to show off an awesome collection of cotton batiks. She also has a documentation tag on the back corner which gives the name of the quilt, the maker, the location, the date, and the fabric content as well as a note “made in the USA.”

Hannah selected the fabrics for this perfectly appliqued quilt. The autumn colors on the light tan background makes the carefully sewn applique work look even sharper! Note the care taken in selecting portions of the printed fabric to use for each piece of applique and how well each is oriented to enhance the overall design. Quite often the quantity and quality of the quilting on this style of quilt leaves a lot to be desired — not here! Look at the very fine stitching.

Tillie’s Treasures/Corn and Beans — Either name, this old, quaint pattern is certainly a beauty and somewhat unusual. The name Tillie is an old English name from the early 1900s. This pattern is done in half square triangles which follows the tradition of very old quilts. I love quilts that have a secondary design forming from the 4 light triangles coming together as neighbors and making a light square appearing to be set on the point even though the actual patch is square and set into the quilt top in a square placement. It appears to be a complex pattern and it’s stunning variegated coloring almost appears to shimmer. The fabrics are all 100% first quality cotton prints. The quilt is hand quilted with 8 tiny stitches per inch of thread. A practical beauty for any bedroom.
