Custom Made Amish Quilts
What to know about having a Custom Amish Quilt made.
You may see a quilt on Amish Loft, and love the pattern and the workmanship,
but it's not the right size for your bed, and you may want different colors.
We work with several Amish quilters who make custom quilts.
Hand made custom bed quilts take from 3 to 4 1/2 months to be completed.
400 to 700 hours
are invested into the quilts. Our quilts are entirely hand quilted. Typically one women will work on a quilt,
on occasion two women will work on one quilt. One Amish lady will do all the piecing and marking,
and another will do the quilting.
A custom made quilt's price is the same for the same pattern you see on the site.
If the quilter no longer has the fabric needed, there may be an additional cost of $20.
What size quilt would I get?
There are several things to think about when choosing a size of a quilt.
Will it hang over the bed and by how much?
Will the quilt have to cover pillows at the top?
After you have decided on the questions above, you’ll need to do a little measuring.
Measure the size of your mattress, not only the width and length, but also the thickness of your mattress.
Standard mattresses are 8-10" thick, but some are thicker.
Are you going to cover your pillows with the quilt, and tuck an inch or two of your quilt underneath your pillow?
If so, you’ll need to add 2 to 4 more inches to the length’s measurement.
These measurements will affect how much of your quilt will drop over the sides of your bed.
Sizes of standard mattresses:

Full |
