	Amish Quilts - Old Order Mennonite
		Old Order Mennonite, also known as Amish Mennonites or Buggy Mennonites, are a conservative religious group which separated from the Mennonite Church in the late 1800s because they wanted to maintain the Old Order ways of worship and community church life.
		Frequently you can see the Old Order Mennonite young men and women riding on their bicycles to and from work, and on Meeting days, you will see horse and buggys with a bike rack attached to the back (for the teens to drive home after the evening Singing).
		Quilting is a part of the life of the Old Order Mennonite family, and many of the Old Order Mennonites ladies quilt, and teach their daughters how to quilt, so traditions and many Amish quilt patterns are passed through the generations.

		In St. Mary's County, Md., Old Order Amish and Mennonite families don't believe in home phone lines.
		Here are eight pages from "The Riddle of Amish Culture" by Donald B. Kraybill, excerpted with permission by the book's author and the book's publisher, The Johns Hopkins University Press.
		Because the phones are hidden, locked and -- in the case of a metal chamber booth, which was fashioned out of a tank salvaged from a junkyard -- reinforced, the phones are less likely to attract vandals and drug dealers.

		On the other hand, Old Order Mennonite and Old Order Amish groups are more restrictive in their views of modern technology, with the Old Order Amish being the most conservative of Lancaster County's "plain" groups.

		Among the Old Order Mennonite and Amish communities of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, the coming of the telephone posed a serious challenge to the longstanding traditions of work, worship, silence, and visiting.
		In 1907, Mennonites crafted a compromise in order to avoid a church split and grudgingly allowed telephones for lay people while prohibiting telephone ownership among the clergy.
		For Old Order communities, Umble writes, appropriate use of the telephone marks the edges of appropriate association--who can be connected to whom, in what context, and under what circumstances.
