Are handmade quilts worth anything?
1 Answer

Yes, handmade quilts may be worth something. The value of quilts depends on their maker, age, style, complexity, size, condition and other factors. In 1991, a quilt produced during the American Civil War era known as the Reconciliation Quilt set a record when it sold for $264,000 at auction. If you own a handmade quilt and would like to find out how much it may be worth, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can be of assistance. Explore a collection of quilts on 1stDibs.
