Quilt Appraisals and Why You Need Them

Quilts are so much more than fabric in a pattern. They are works of art, family heirlooms, and precious mementos passed down through generations. As a certified quilt appraiser, Lynn Rinehart knows a thing or two about determining the value of a quilt. There are many reasons why you should consider doing a quilt appraisal, whether for insurance purposes or to protect the quilt's value when shipping it or displaying it in a show.

Lynn breaks down quilt appraisals and shows you ways to understand your quilt's value and history. Learn how to professionally label and display antique, vintage, or new quilts. She explains different preservation methods, determining if a quilt is worth saving, and more in this fun and informative lecture.
