If you mean the traditional, antique Amish quilts in deep solid colors ... yes they CAN be a good investment ...
If you mean a recent Amish quilt made of print fabrics ? not so much ... it won't be worth much more than ANY hand-made quilt you'd buy in the US. Evidently they don't make many in the beautiful solid colors anymore ... a real shame.
Buyer beware ... do your research ... they may or may NOT be made by the Amish (Hmong piecers etc) or may only be quilted by them. We saw a lot of "Amish" quilts two years ago at a big auction here in Texas - they were NOT well made and all in 1980's calicos ...
