    I think it is home made. Perhaps not hand quilted, but certainly not store bought.

    If you made it and did not buy it from the store it is "Handmade"

    it's hand made because it was made by you. it's not hand quilted, but it is certainly hand made.

    i have a couple of commercially bought quilts and they list hand made or hand quilted on them. i am sure some woman in a developing country sat and hand made/quilted it somewhere though i purchased it in a store.

    yep they can use "handmade" and be correct.

    I believe a handmade quilt is the very same as a homemade quilt. If in doubt, put handcrafted. :D

    I thought of "Home Made" also.

    hand made is correct-
    any craft can be called hand made as long as you are not doing production work---sweat shops with lines of machines cranking out quilts by the hour are not hand made- a quilt we make in our sewing room one at a time is a hand made item....you are certainly using your hands- some machine is not doing the work (even if you are using a sewing machine) there is a big difference
