Thank you all. Jan, very good insights. We have an antique shop just down the block, and one of the owners stopped by today to give us some advice on antiques we've been given. His advice in general was similar to your regarding things like Limoges china, 19th century silver tea set, etc. The quilt top came in after he left, so I may show it to him, since he does have quilts from time to time. We can put a modest price on this, and since the woman who donated it will be working at the sale tomorrow, I'll ask if she would like me to fix it and quilt it. Maybe we could get a bit more for it at our craft sale in September that way. Basically, it's someone's UFO and we'd just like to get a little something from it. It was made in CT, brought here to VT, just as most people in our state were. (Including me.)
