A beautiful blue Royal Aster Amish quilt

We have some new quilts from a remote Old Order community in Wisconsin. The community, guided by a strict Bishop, seeks self-sufficiency with minimal commercial interaction with the non-Amish world. We are excited to present their work. Here is our very first Royal Aster Amish quilt. So pretty and a quilt we have seen in Amish homes. Solid and print fabrics give the central aster dimension. Colors repeat in the border, tying the design together. An all around beautiful quilt, suitable for both king and queen sized beds.

A Gorgeous Cathedral Windows Amish Blanket

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)

Approximate dimensions: 100″ X 118″ – $1,400.00

Bargello Amish Quilt

This Bargello pattern is referred to as a “flame stitch” and is typically stitched into canvas and used to make upholstery. In this case, a traditional Bargello pattern was adapted to create the Amish quilt you see here.  The maker used a variety of solid and print fabrics to contrast within a complex pattern and create what appears to be three dimensional depth.  Her quilting within the main part of the quilt emphasizes the flame stitch by mirroring the peaks and valleys of this Bargello pattern.  (Item 2192)

A gorgeous Drunkards Path Amish quilt!

Ascribed to the Drunkards Path Quilt pattern are several meanings: the Drunkards Path was meant to symbolize a drunk’s staggering walk. So these these quilts were made to promote the abolition of alcohol. Thus, the pattern became prominent in the late 19th century. Earlier this pattern was associated with the Underground Railroad: the pattern, by mapping routes and marking safe houses, was used to help escaping slaves find their way to freedom. One thing is certain, this pattern presents quilters with a challenge. The zigzag pattern made of curved pieces of fabric is difficult for all but experienced quilters.

Approximate dimensions: 99″ X 111″ – $1,100.00

Winners Circle Amish Quilt

An Amish Flower Garden Quilt

This beautiful and visually rich Amish Flower Garden quilt is unusual because there are no light colored fabrics used to separate or form a border around the flowers. Hence the lush and abundant feel of this Flower Garden quilt. The sash fabric is red stars on white and the backing fabric is off-white. The maker hand quilted ribbons and bows along the sash. While most would consider this quilt to be for a Queen size bed, it is shown on a king and it looks great. A quilt can be large enough to be a bedspread and smaller if used as a blanket. We don’t discriminate. This Flower Garden quilt may be the happiest quilt in America . . . or anywhere.

Approximate dimensions: 88” X 94” -$ 975.00
