The freezing rain in DC this week has got me blanket obsessed (I'm actually writing this on the couch wrapped in a blanket right now), so of course quilts are on my mind. I love that they are a truly American craft, the sweet sentiment of a handmade quilt, and of course, the patterns and lovely graphic punch they bring to a room.

Don't they look so hospitable stacked in a cabinet like this? My favorite types of quilts are either "feels like home" Amish quilts or completely stunning Hawaiian quilts like the ones pictured below:

For Hawaiian quilts, I
love these offerings at
Emmalani Hawaiian Quilts.

For a more traditional, wintery look,
AmishQuilter.com has a solid selection of handmade quilts from Lancaster, Pa.

Finally, I just adore
John Robshaw's selection of quilts which feel modern and bohemian at the same time:

Which ever type is your favorite, I hope you stay warm tonight!
