This Starspin Amish Quilt measures 102 x 112 inches to fit your King or Queen size bed. It is from Lancaster County PA, and was handquilted. There are approximately 6 to 7 handquilted stitches per inch on this Starspin Amish Quilt. There is creamy white fabric for the back of this quilt. The chalk marking that is used to guide the handquilter is visible, especially on the darker fabrics.
In Lancaster County and in the surrounding counties in Pennsylvania, there are communities of Mennonite who are Old Order, which means that they do not drive automobiles. Located in this Old Order community, there are many carriage shops (to repair buggies), men wearing broadfall black trousers and women with solid colored dresses of purple and blue are a common sight, and their clean clothes wave in the rural breeze from a clothesline strung high in the backyard on Mondays, their laundry day.
This quilt comes with a free fabric storage bag.
