Quilt Appraisals - New Links

Bee with a hat.Check out the Links page, I've done some online research, because several people have asked me who they could have appraise their quilts, and or sell them.  I've listed local appraisers on the website.  There are several resources, information of why, by whom and how.  There are books, conservation, galleries, and a lot more information links, check it out.
