Quilt Appraisals
Protect your valued quilts, both old and new, with an appraisal by professional appraisers certified by the American Quilter’s Society. It is essential if you want a fair replacement value for a lost, stolen or damaged quilt from an insurance company. This is as important for quilts that you have just made, as well as older quilts. The cost of a written appraisal is $45 per quilt and a verbal evaluation is $25. If you are interested, please check the appraisal box on the online registration form and you will be contacted to make an appointment. Details for appraisals of quilts hanging in the show will be mailed with acceptance letters. Please contact Julia Zgliniec (rzglini1@san.rr.com) for additional information or to schedule an appointment for quilts brought into the show during show hours. Please note: fees are subject to change.
