    We went to the curry restaurant today and found these beautiful Indian batik quilts hung on the wall.
    They are all machine sewn without batting and maybe manufactured somewhere outside India, but the matrials are from India.
    The shop owner told it is possible for him to buy something similar stock for me from India.
    I haven't placed any order yet, just wanted to ask the ladies on here before then.
    The quilt measures maybe over 40" x 40".
    I have no idea how much is the reasonable price for these kinda quilts.

    How much could it be if you would get one?

    Please advise how you think.

    It is pretty Panda, but don't know how much it is worth without being able to touch it. Could it be mass produced like you find some things are?
    If so, then the price for it would be really low.

    Very, very pretty! Not much help on the price though. I'm with Terri -- need to feel it :roll:

    Well, how much can you get one for??? Does it feel like it will shrink when washed? Is the fabric stiff?? What does the stitching look like (big stitches)?

    Some blocks were unmatched.LOL

    I'd ask him how much for them.
    They look like the things that are mass produced in the Phillipenes.
