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.

Log Cabin quilts date back to when Abraham Lincoln was running for office. Because women could not vote, they made log cabin quilts to show their support for him as he lived in a log cabin. During the era of the Underground Railroad, a log cabin quilt hanging in the window of a Northern home indicated a safe house.

Made by a Mennonite quilter, Ruth

About Our Shop:

Our shop is a partnership with the Amish, Mennonite and other local artisans. We do not dictate what they make but receive what they bring in to us.   Many of our 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!  ALL of our quilts are hand quilted, representing hundreds of hours of work after the top is pieced.  Hand stitched quilts are becoming treasures from the past as the popularity of the long arm quilting machines speed up the convenience of making a quilt. 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 piece of Lancaster County today!
