In the Amish country ordsprog

In the Amish country, the average price is between $1,000 and $1,500. Art quilts can go for much more than that, just like an artist's oil painting. Handmade quilts are more valuable than machine-made quilts. Some of them take six months to a year to make.

We're keeping it to just one day because the quilts are so old and valuable. Some of the designs are really unusual.

I do too. Quilts are made to be used and loved.

She made most of her quilts by hand. This is the last quilt she made, but it's not done yet. It's a work in progress.

For years, I made traditional quilts. I taught quilting through the Parks & Recreation (in Brookfield) and quilt stores.

She wants to have more quilts on display than I have. I have 17 here now.
