My mother saved two wool batts from the 1940s that were in the tied quilts we had on our beds as kids. I, in turn, saved them all these years but never used them. They're about 87x62 inches. I believe they were purchased from the St. Peter (MN) woolen mill, at least that's where my mother would send them to be recarded occasionally.

I'm hoping that someone on this message board will advise me about their value. Besides their sentimental value to me, do these batts have any commercial value if I were to try to sell them?

I'm a retired technical writer who remains a beginning knitter, quilter, and crocheter--I have no skill at these things!

Hello and Welcome to the board :D:D:D
Sorry, I can't help you with this question...

Hello and welcome from the UK! Interesting question.

Why don't you just use them? I'm forever wishing I had more batting. I can't seem to get as excited about purchasing extra batting as I do about buying fabric. Lol!

Ummm....used batting has value? LOL. Sorry, but I don't think I'd pay for used batting.
