Its worth a lot if you have provinance that authenticates.
My great grandfather was a German imigrent in the mid 1800's. As a young man he ran a farm with his wife and 6 children. When the season was over they sat at the diningroom table and paid the bills. If there was money left over he would hire a seamstress to come and make dresses for each of the 5 girls.
My great grandmother would take the scraps and make what was called a crazy quilt.It was embridered with small beads. I thought it was so much an art piece I had it framed.
