Meteor in it, circa 1913. I had it appraised in Paducah at the quilt show. I would like to sell it to a collector of WW I Quilts or Memorabilia. I live in Benton, Ky. 520-850-7335 I would appreciate any help. Thanks Lynn Hello Sandra, I have a WW I quilt with a ship’s ribbon from the S.M.S. Meteor in it, circa 1913.

Quilts shown are L-R a circa 1850 applique reel quilt, a c. 1890 blazing star quilt (quilted recently) and a c. 1900 redwork summer spread (an unquilted top that is finished to be used as a cover). And to answer Nova's question the redwork embroidery is a purchased antique-I didn't make it. Thanks again. Michele asked if the quilts in the second photo are more of my collection- yes.

We, AQS Certified appraisers are required to keep up to date on values of old and new quilts and historical research as well as trends in current quilting. We are also required to recertify every 3 years with AQS so that they can confirm that we are actively appraising and studying. Great question. Sandra To answer Lisa’s question–YES!

I am wondering, do you have to keep studying (much like professions who do continuing education) for your job as a quilt appraiser?
