Midnight Star Amish Quilt
Beginning in the very center, it’s fitting that a spinning pinwheel generates the energy for the inner Amish Star, which is the center of another scintillating and beautifully made Amish Star. The piecing of fabrics is exciting an daring. The quilting is thoughtful.

This Dresden Plate Amish quilt in blue fabrics has a lot of extras! First, the pattern: It became popular in the depression era of the 20th century as a way for quilters to create quilts out of fabric scraps. The plates are lovely and this quilt features two extra plates that will cover the pillow portion of your bed. And look at that extra quilting around these plates. Also striking: there is a three sided border in a pattern called Ice Cream Cone. Blue, like a blue sky always puts all of us in a good and positive mood. A feel good quilt.

This quilt is covered with cross stitch embroidered roses. It is shown on a king size bed, yet technically it is a “queen.” The point is that this is a quilt and not a bed spread. It works on a king or a queen. It looks beautiful and it feels great. It’s fluffy and warm in all ways. Too many people are hung up on dimensions; too many want an oversized quilt.
Approximate dimensions: 92″ X 102″ – SOLD
This Love in Common Amish quilt (our first) is of an appliqued heart of roses, buds, leaves and hearts, in the middle of which is a hand quilted heart – all embraced by an appliqued bow. The fabrics chosen for this quilt are especially beautiful and delightful. The appliqued heart and bow are surrounded by beautiful fabrics pieced into a “brickwork” pattern, which becomes, overall, a Boston Common pattern. This quilt is also reversible – the maker chose a soft blue pattern fabric to back it.

The Amish call this quilt pattern a “Memory Chain.” It is a patchwork in a pattern we have never seen before. More genius: the patches are soft and muted, kind of indefinite and searching, like remembering, like memory. The rest of the top and back are a soft ivory color. The maker used high-loft batting for this quilt so it is extra cozy and warm. There is a lot of hand quilting throughout: feathered twists, vines of hearts, zigzags and garlands . . . representing a life worthwhile and well lived!

The Amish have made a superb Broken Dishes quilt out of a pink and white calico print and a solid ivory fabric. This is an arduous quilt that requires the utmost in skill and determination. Small triangles are perfectly pieced and each piece of fabric is quilted on all sides. The quilting is uniform and well executed. What should not be overlooked is how the predominately geometric aspect of this quilt pattern is set off and contained within curvilinear floral quilting on and around the quilt’s ivory borders, just inside the binding. Balance brought about by contracts

For those of you who know quilts, have you ever seen a Star Dahlia Log Cabin? We have not. Within the Amish eight pointed stars are dahlias.

This quilt is an archetypal Color Splash: the finest we’ve ever seen. It comes from North Carolina. It isn’t new and it is in perfect condition. This is a hand quilted textile. It is an important and one of a kind quilt that was made around 75 to 90 years ago. The fabrics are long extinct. Some of them are miraculously beautiful contributing to this quilt’s radiance. Every 1.25″ square of fabric is hand quilted on all four sides! There are 6,724 squares! Art for the bedroom, for the bed or, for a wall.

In researching the Broken Dishes quilt pattern we found that it is an old pattern – one of the oldest, which makes sense: It is made entirely of sewn-together triangles. Brilliant in its simplicity and simple in its brilliance. Stories about the Broken Dishes pattern say that it represents the broken dishes left by settlers on their way west, but we doubt this to be true. This quilt is beautifully made, with perfect pieces and lots of great quilting. Every side of every triangle that makes up our Broken Dishes quilt has been hand quilted. Another thing about this quilt: by daylight or under lamplight it’s completely gorgeous. We love it!

The maker of this Chrysalis Star Amish quilt has arranged black and white print fabrics to create this pattern that is glinting, pulsing and radiating. It’s a restless and exploding, yet contained star pattern – brilliantly designed: How do you achieve achieve expanding diamonds and rectangular logs that become curves? And can you see that there isn’t a solid fabric in this quilt? Even what appears to be white is a white on white shadow patterned fabric and over this, are heavily hand quilted swirl patterns which serve to stand for the cosmos. (Item 2095)

This log cabin is quilted in the ditch, which is a lot of fabric to quilt through by hand.

9 Patch Amish quilts are usually pieced with sashes between each 9 Patch square. This time the maker eliminated all sashes and sewed the 9 Patch square to each other.

Be sure to view the detail photos: the quilt’s borders are heavily hand quilted with intertwined hearts and doves.

In our view, the Cathedral Windows is more bedspread than quilt. There is no batting, rather, it is made of cotton fabrics folded and layered many times – so many layers and folds that it is much heavier than a quilt! After the folding and layering, somehow these fabrics are joined. You can see teeny tiny micro stitches throughout (of course, done by hand). What’s the most amazing? We have no idea how Cathedral Windows are made. All we knows is that the results are stunning. A sight to behold! (Item 2291)

A beautiful Star Spin Amish quilt all in shades of navy blue. Superb quilting and piecing. the Amish never cease to amaze: an entire array of sensations or feeling (kind of a poem) can be unlocked based upon the quilter’s choice of fabrics.

The white-on-white fabric generates the stars’ spin and the forward march of the seasons. (Item 2230)

This 9 Patch Amish quilt is heavily hand quilted, and, the fabrics are beautiful.

This quilt pattern changes, depending upon how you look at it. It can be seen as flowers with four or eight petals, or, one is reminded of a large flock of blackbirds taking off or settling in a tree. There is constant movement and it’s a beautiful pattern, accomplished by some gorgeous piecing of nothing but triangles. This quilt is entirely black and a creamy unbleached cotton, and the sharp contrast between dark and light is what creates the fluid negative and positive interchange of spaces.
There is also a weave – almost like a woven basket – that becomes prominent when the quilt is viewed on a diagonal. This quilt pattern is called Arachne’s Quilt after the master weaver who, in Greco-Roman mythology, challenged Athena to a weaving contest. For this hubris, Arachne was changed into a spider: the greatest weaver of all.
