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.

Gorgeous original design by C Jean Horst. Note how Jean has captured not only the shape of the poppy flowers, but the stems and leaves as well! Even the poppy coloring is similar to that of the poppies one sees in Flanders fields. The gold tones in the cream background fabric warms the whole quilt. The quilting between the poppies is equally attractive. Made here in Lancaster, quilted by an Amish woman. Copyright pattern — directions are unavailable.
