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!

Approximate dimensions: 96″ X 108″ – $1,250.00
