I have very little family and no friends that would want/need a twin size. I just hate to see it sit in my attic not being used but I don't have a wall for it either and it really wouldn't go with my decor at all. chairjogger: what a coincidence! I can understand why you cherish that quilt so much, I would too! I'll bet it is beautiful in blues!! |
I would seriously do a search for a licensed quilt appraisals. Contact the nearest quilt museum in your area or next state. They may know who to contact. Also do a google search. It is a wonderful quilt. Sometimes at the larger quilt shows they have appraisers at the site of the show.

I don't have a need for it since we don't have twin size beds anymore. I'm thinking of selling it. BTW, beautiful quilt! |

What about just copied for note cards from you! |

Me too. And the dog seems bewildered to find to find Daddy lying on the ground. He's a very puzzled fur kid. |
That is a very pretty quilt. I have no clue what you could get for it, but wanted to say that keeping it in a plastic bag is not a good idea. It would be better to roll or gently fold it and place it in a cotton pillowcase or sheet. Even better, keep it on a guest bed, protected from sunlight.

if there is an up coming quilt show in your area they at times have an appraiser available- for a fee you can have your quilt appraised- then you will know what it is worth before selling it- and you can include the appraisal as part of the sale.

But...its only worth what someone will pay for it...
