I have a hex sign on my front door - two lovebirds, actually. It’s a tribute to my late mother who loved visiting the Amish and always bought their signs and put them up on her own front door. Wonderful people.
Yes, the Amish are very creative, though "plain folk" and I too love those hex signs!
Did she, or you, ever get to visit Goode’s Dairy Farm? They have a nice restaurant, delicious homemade ice cream, and a really interesting arts/crafts shop of Amish crafts.
Many moons ago, when I was a young college student, we’d make regular runs out to the farm for our ice cream sundaes. They had a llama on their farm, and we’d frequently see it resting under one of their big trees. Oh the memories!
Aren’t hex signs Pennsylvania Dutch — too flashy for Amish?
I love the double distelfink hex and plan to make an applique quilt of that pattern.
