A "quillow" is a hand-knotted quilt that is stuffed into a quilted panel, thereby making a pillow.
The Amish may call themselves the plain people but these beautiful rich colors that are traditionally Amish combine to make a quillow that's anything but plain! These traditional Amish color combinations are prized by many, who collect items ranging from quilts to placemats with them...(you might notice our own Almost Amish logo incorporates two of them!)
The quilt inside is hand-knotted. It is not intended to be decorative; rather, it is meant to be pulled out and used as a blanket when you're reading or watching television.
Below is a view of the hand-knotted quilt in a midnight navy blue:
The hand-knots are detailed in this photo below:
Approximate Dimensions:
pillowtop: 15 1/2 " x 17"
unfolded quilt: 66" x 43"
To re-fold your quillow back to its original condition:
1. Fold lengthwise in approximate thirds to meet pillow seams, folding the bottom portion that is at the opposite end of the pillow a little narrower.
2. Fold the quilt in half lengthwise towards the pillow, approximately 1" from the pillow top.
3. Fold once again in quarters this time, and quilt will meet the pillow's bottom edge.
4. Reaching into pillowtop's corners, carefully but firmly invert pillow top back through.
