The Amish are a group of individuals whom, for religious reasons, choose to rely on techniques and technologies that they can make, control and repair without reliance on an outside community. Because of this religious belief and lifestyle, most Amish communities do not have electricity or electrical machinery. Therefore, true Amish quilts are made by hand, with a thread needle and fabric. However, there are quite a few underhanded dealers who will sell "Amish" quilts that were not made by hand without the use of a machine.
