The instantly recognizable look of Amish quilts is much admired amoung quilters, but little has been published about what makes them authentic. Unlike any other book available today, Amish Wall Quilts shows quilters how to replicate Amish quilts in a wall-quilt size. Historian and quilter Rachel Thomas Pellman, a noted expert and author of many books on the Amish, shares her first-hand knowledge in this collection of dramatic quilts to enjoy in today's modern settings. This book includes fifteen projects that capture the stunning patterns and vibrant, solid colors historically used by Amish. The distinct quiltmaking characteristics of three Amish communities are covered, such as the free use of color in Midwest and the emphasis on elaborate quilting in Lancaster County, PA. Fascinating details are revealed about the ways in which Amish women use qulting as an opportunity for creative expression. Designed by Rachel Pellman
