I just checked on-line for king size quilts at department stores and she could buy one much cheaper.
So how much is a handmade king size quilt worth? I would love to hear what you think.
My DH took me to an Amish town to shop today and the quilts we sat that were that size were $800. There was one hanging on the wall that was $5,000. Hope this helps. :-)
