Description
32” x 40” Beautifully hand-crafted American Amish pieced cotton crib quilt in a “One Patch” pattern from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania circa the mid 1900s. The prominent colors in the quilt are blue and brown with individual square pieces in brown and blue hand-cut and hand-stitched. The quilt has very fine hand stitching. The Amish community in Pennsylvania hand craft the quilts for their own use using the material that they had on hand. It is a beautiful example of an upcycling and reuse of material that has utilitarian functions but is also a representation of the art and culture that is woven into it.
