Clara's Shoo Fly, by Clara Ford, circa 1960.
Do you know how much your grandmother’s quilt is worth? If not, you may want to get it appraised.
Holly Anderson, Georgia’s only certified quilt appraiser, will appraise quilts Tuesday, August 3, 2010 at Hammonds House Museum as part of the 2010 Atlanta Quilt Festival activities. Hammonds House is located at 503 Peeples Street (West End), Atlanta, GA.
An appointment is required, and each quilt being appraised cost $40.00. During the appointment, Ms. Anderson examines the quilt, takes pictures, and sends the appraisal report to the quilt owner in the mail a few weeks later. She appraises both antique and modern quilts. The $40 is paid at the time of the appraisal.
