However, if you'd like confirmation, you can always have it appraised. You can find a list of certified quilt appraisers here:

Here is a pic of a "Walton" quilt I found on the internet, is the one you're talking about?

The show was set in the 40's, but that doesn't mean that's when the quilt was made. We don't know how accurate the set designer was when they designed and created the set. Your best bet, again, is to have the quilt looked at.
Thank you so much!!
No, this is not the quilt I’m referring to. But thank you for trying.
the pic you found, as I mention in my post, is the quilt that comes up when one searches Walton Quilt because the there is a SHOW called, “The Quilt”. So I completely understand why you got to this reference.
The quilt I am asking help with is on the show many times, but a pic can be seen from Season 3, episode called “The Spoilers”.

hey! I just went to the site I got my pics from which shows illustrated pics of each episode and lists EVERY episode! Hopefully I figured out how to copy and paste a link and it will work. ! I sure hope so.
Anyway, if you can see this pic from the link, its the pic on the right, girl laying on the bed/quilt. It’s a great photo and shows much of the quilt/bedspread, whatever it is, behind her. So happy to have found reference to compare.
originally I screenshot it from same website, then went back to my photos and edited it, zooming in. It is the same quilt for sure. Their’s is mainly red and blue colors while mine has yellows and aquas.
But I still have the problem of posting the pics of the quilt *I have. Unless persons can just picture the same exact one piece printed on both sides item, but more yellow and aqua. It’s really quite beautiful whatever it is.
And you may be right. The set people may have bought this new, from this Colonial Quilt Company, and thought it looked fitting for the show. ? That would mean I have a beautiful but much worn quilt, factory made, from the 70s? 80s?
I’m guessing that’s who made it from the similarities to the one I recently found in my late grandmother’s house which is brand new in the package with tag perfectly readable until I washed the quilt.
I tried again today to attach pics by following another very kind member who responded and told me the steps to take to upload a photo, but I still got this message...

I tapped, “Inform the admin” and it said it was sent, so let’s hope 🙏🏼 , but then gave another error code. Ugh!
I’m a very private person as far as my settings on my iPad, so maybe I need to change a setting?
I know that pics would be the key here. I guess I have a lot to learn about forums and attachments and maybe shouldn’t post until I know how to attach pics.
Until then, my kindest regards for the time you have given me. ❤️
truly,
