Hello! My sister has been cleaning out an old 1920's home on a farm about twenty minutes outside of Raleigh, North Carolina. She found a couple of quilts stored in a trunk in the attic. We are thinking they are from the mid to late 1800's but I have no way of actually dating them. They are lovely in a way only an old quilt can be. But they are damaged. Sis wants me to sell them on ebay...but I don't know if there is a market or what to try to sell them for since the overall condition is probably considered poor. I am inclined to say good really, with patches of poor. :) But I guess since they would be pretty fragile to use, they would be poor? One quilt is about 78 x 64 and the other is about 62 X 38, but the binding has been removed on one side. It was larger. I don't think I have it in me to throw them away...just not sure what to do with them. Any ideas? Thanks so much!
