I am confused? What exactly makes an Amish quilt worth more than one made by anyone else? Do you think they hand piece them?....they use treadle machines. Does a quilt that is handquilted have more value than one that has been beautifully and intricately machine quilted? Does a quilt that my great-grandmother made have less value than one made by the Amish? I live in the midst of the Amish and while I think that their way of life is very uncomplicated, I don't value their quilts over any other.
