If you have it appraised by a certified appraiser, give a copy of the appraisal with the quilt and let them know that their insurance company - for renters insurance or homeowners insurance - will need a copy of it in case of fire or theft. That way they can see for themselves the value of the quilt without you having to tell them the cost. Also, do add care instructions (separate label?) so they know how to care for the quilt. Keep a copy of the appraisal for yourself...may just need it!
