Custom Amish Quilts
Our Amish quilters would love to make a special quilt just for you. Based on your desired quilt design, we will carefully select a quilter that has experience quilting similar designs. Our goal is to ensure that your custom quilt is made according to the high standards that we set for all of our finished quilts. We want you to be thrilled with your custom Amish quilt.
Cost
A custom Amish quilt costs approximately the same as one of our finished quilts. Depending on the fabric and color schemes that you select, there could be some additional cost (usually $25 to $100). We will work with you to create a beautiful custom quilt that fits your budget.
How Long Will My Quilt Take?
Making beautiful, one-of-kind Amish quilts is never a quick process. That being said, it usually takes around 6 months to complete a custom bed quilt. Custom quilted wall hangings are usually completed in 3 months. If you have a special date (birthday, wedding, anniversary) by which you need the quilt completed, please let us know, and our quilters will push to make your deadline, or we'll also let you know if we don't think we can do it.
Getting Started
The best way for you to figure out what you want is to look at a lot of quilts here at Amish Quilt Shop.net. Browsing through our online collection should give you plenty of good ideas. Once you find suitable quilts that are close, we can work with you to get it just the way you want it. We can vary the quilts colors, sizes, fabrics and even modify designs. Feel free to send us fabric swatches or paint chips to show us the colors you want. When you're ready, you can fill out our Custom Quilts Form (also found on every quilt product page) to give us all the specifics.
If you are interested in a reproduction of an antique quilt, you can find good ideas in the following books. Feel free to call (877-235-3360) or email us and we'll be happy to get you a quote.
