Find Distinctive Amish Quilts At These Ohio Shops
Of all the items that are made in Amish communities, some of the most treasured are quilts. Known for bold colors and geometric shapes, Amish quilts are beautiful works of art. Whether you would like to purchase one for your home or as a gift, or if you are a quilter interested in making your own unique quilt, the following shops are ones to check out.
Schrock’s Heritage Village is located just 35 minutes from White Oak Inn in Ohio’s largest Amish community. Here is where you’ll find Gramma Fannie’s Quilt Barn, a treasure trove of quilt making with quilts literally hanging from the rafters. The shop offers dozens of one-of-a-kind Amish handmade quilts and wall hangings in a variety of colors, pattern, and sizes—all made in the store or by local Amish women. Home quilters will love the wide selection of fabric, notions, patterns, stencils, and books.
