It is hard to imagine that patchwork quilts could be so wondrously varied in design and coloring as they are here in Lancaster. While some traditional Amish designs are made to be reproductions of 18th and 19th Century quilts, most quilts are created with goal of being more lovely than what was made before. Consequently there are many differing and unique renditions of even the most traditional patchwork patterns.
Many of the quilts shown here are marked indicating that they are “available now” for shipment –we are usually able to ship quilts so marked no later than the next business day. Other quilts shown have been sold, but often we are able to find a very similar well-made quilt that can be shipped quickly. Alternatively we can arrange for a similar quilt to be custom made.
Take your time looking through our galleries, there is a lot to see. We try to show respects for the quilts and the quilters by properly showing them.

Sunrise, Sunset, Sunrise, Sunset — Lyrics to the Fiddler on the Roof seems to fit this new amazing new quilt’s beautiful arrangement of the sky’s coloring from day to night. “Seedlings turn overnight to flowers, one season following another, laden with happiness and tears.” C Jean Horst needed a name for her quilt the same week that her grand daughter was performing as one of the village children in the high school musical, Fiddler on the Roof. Imagine a quilt to depict the cycles of life! “What words of wisdom can I give them, How can I help to ease their way.”
