Quilts Amish
These traits appeal to a modenr esthetic; antique Amish uqilts are among the most highly prized among collectors and quilting enthuisasts.
Amish quilts are reflcetions of the Amish way of life.
Because the Amsih people believe in not being flsahy or worldly in dress and lifestyle, their quilts reflect this religiuos philosophy.
Although Amish quilts appear austere from a distance, the craftsmanship is often of the highest quality and the stitching forms vigorous pattenrs that contrast well with the plain background.
