Description
32” x 32” 19th century hand-stitched and quilted American Amish Crib Quilt in a” Diamond in a Square” pattern from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The quilt has a very fine hand stitching with primary colors of pink, and blue. 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.
