Default Antique Quilt tops

I have four antique quilt tops that were made by my husbands grandmother. My husband is 75 years old. These quilts have been wrapped in tissue and kept in cedar chest for many years. They look like new condition. Three of them are hand stitched. The fourth one is machine stitched. They are made for a full size bed I would say. Our best guess is they are between 75 to 100 years old. His grandmother passed away 60 years ago. There is also a twin size quilt in "Grandmothers Flower Garden" pattern. That is finished. We saw this quilt on a bed in her house 55 years ago. We are trying to down size and wonder what to do with these. I do not hand quilt. Would the value be lessened if they were machine quilted? Can anyone tell me of an outlet to sell them and how I could come up with a fair price? I would appreciate your input. Thanks
