Description
About This Pattern:
This is the most unique Log Cabin quilt you will ever see! This pattern requires sewing together hundreds of small pieces to create the star in the center and the tribal shapes around it. If you look closely, there are numerous intricate details.
The Log Cabin quilt pattern dates back to when Abraham Lincoln was running for office. Women couldn’t vote, but they supported Lincoln by creating the log cabin quilt pattern. During the era of the Underground Railroad, a log cabin quilt hanging in the window of a Northern home indicated a safe house.
Quilter:
Made by a Mennonite quilter, Ruth
Measurements:
King (115″ W x 118″ L)
A regular king mattress measures 76″ wide and 80″ long, so this quilt would have a 19.5″ drop on each side.
A California king mattress measures 72″ wide and 84″ long, so this quilt would have a 21.5″ drop on each side.
All quilts are long enough for a significant drop at the foot and a nice pillow tuck at the top, eliminating the need for pillow shams.
About Our Shop:
Our shop is a partnership with Amish, Mennonite, and other local artisans. We do not dictate what they make but receive what they bring into us. Many of the quilt tops are pieced on treadle sewing machines. In case you aren’t familiar with that term, it means a machine powered by foot power, not electricity! Our quilters hand-quilt all of our quilts, which represents hundreds of hours of work after they piece the top. How can you let this beauty slip through your fingers? Buy a one-of-a-kind, hand-stitched quilt, that will become an heirloom in your family. Bring home a handmade piece of Lancaster County, made in the USA today!
