Amish women make the Amish quilt with their own hands. The creative energy that they pour into their quilting gives it a life and personality of its own. Many of the Amish quilts are a bold statement combining color, graphics and repetition. Several tips when considering an Amish quilt:

• Quilt size: there are many sizes available. The smaller sizes include wall hangings, throws, runners and crib sized quilts. Bed sized Amish quilts also come in a variety of sizes from twin to king.
• Color scheme – if there you have specific colors in mind for your Amish quilt, there are many photo galleries online.
• Custom quilts – many Amish quilt makers will create a custom quilt for you. Obviously, the details for a custom Amish quilt will be worked out between the customer and the quilter. Custom quilts are usually more expensive.
• Caring for your quilt: the best way to clean an Amish quilt is to dry clean it. Most Amish quilts are made of cotton or cotton-polyester blend, so they can also be machine washed, but it must one gentle with mild detergent. It is best to line dry these quilts. It is important to roll, not fold your Amish quilts and to store them in cotton, not plastic.

An Amish quilt takes between 400-700 hours to complete. These works of art are beautiful pieces of Americana art. Each Amish quilter puts a little of herself into each quilt. When you choose an Amish quilt, you choose a great handcrafted, hand sewn quilt that can be passed down for generations.
