Memory Chain

Posted on April 18, 2025April 18, 2025 by admin

Memory Chain Amish Patchwork Quilt

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!

Approximate dimensions: 100” X 107” – $1,050.00

Pinwheel Quilt

Amish Pinwheel Quilt

This is a quilt of genius! Hand quilted daisy-like flowers create a garland that surrounds what the Amish call “Primitive Pinwheels”. The sash and the binding: happy, well-chosen and support perfectly the Pinwheels, which are pieced out of light-ish to dark-ish fabrics. Placement of the Pinwheels creates an overall hombre effect: a visual breeze. Wind driven motion, energy, health and vitality.

Broken Dishes

Broken Dishes Amish quilt in classic colors

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

Classic Broken Dishes Amish Quilt Pattern

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!

A traditional Amish quilt for a queen size bed, but work-able on any bed. We don’t know where to start with the Amish Basket of Flowers quilt. It’s jaw droppingly ingenious.

The fabrics which make the flowers in each basket are beautiful. There is an overall harmony to this quilt. So much work. So much quilting. Who else has or makes such stunning quilts as the Amish?

Winters Night Amish quilt pattern

Wow, folks. A Winters Night. We haven’t had a Winters Night quilt in almost 5 years. Love the pattern. Love the geometry. Great fabrics and always Amish world class piecing and hand quilting. In this quilt, the pattern and the fabrics especially stand out: because, while this quilt is full of motion it has a quietude. You know that during the night quiet while snow is falling, or the quiet of an early morning after a snowy night? This has it.

A an interesting and beautiful Amish Patchwork Quilt

This is a beautiful Amish Patchwork king size Amish quilt. Even the sash is patchwork-y: a double Patchwork! A flower patterned fabric was also used for the sash work and binding. The fabrics are well chosen; overall the quilt is fertile and rich. The back of the quilt is a ruby color fabric. Best of all, the quilter used a high-loft batting which is rare because this type of batting makes it much hard to hand quilt. So this quilt is thick, heavy, soft, warm and cuddly . . . a perfect quilt in all ways, always!
