if you feel it is in good shape= and could be valuable-contact a quilt appraiser and have it appraised. the American Quilter's Society certifies appraisers- and have a list of (trained) ones on their website by location-
of check with a local guild. and see if there is anyone in your area.

That is what I think, too, like Valleyquiltermo.

Is there a LQS near you that could link you up with an appraiser? See if there is a quilt show coming near you that is offering appraisals.

I think I found a place to take it. I just have to get there before they close after work.
Thank for all of your input.

It looks like a fairly recent top as the fans seem to have been satin stitched by machine, based on what I can tell from the picture. It if is fairly recently made, it may not be of much monetary value. Good luck on your search.

Gorgeous quilt top! Any way to trace it back through the source?
