Quilt Appraisals - New Links
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.
