Historic American Antique Quilts and Coverlets

A large listing of fine antique quilts and woven coverlets with descriptions, photos and midwest prices

Last updated, March 10, 2013

Since 1996

Please look at our special interest items as of 2012 and 2013. 

The Latest Quilts include special collections that have not been shown elsewhere. You'll find that some of these are special quilts well worth their higher prices as they are real keepers you will be proud to own. Others are fine quilts that will not break your piggy bank but equal to a quilt-owner's heart.

 Woven Coverlets

This page has been expanded to include most of our collection of overshot, double cloth, double weave Jacquard and Biederwand (some tied) Jacquard coverlets. We have quite a few named Jacquards. There are a couple of real collector items on the page also.

All White or Wedding Quilts and Coverlets

This is a page of all white pieces. Some were meant to be wedding quilts or coverlets, and we just don't know if that was the intent for others. It is certainly not unusual to make a wedding quilt of colored fabric, so let's just say these are whole-cloth white. 

 

Venerable Quilts and Enigma Quilt

For a bit of fun, go to the Venerable Quilts Page and see the Enigma Quilt. I need some feedback on this one desperately.

These other quilts have unusual histories or are unusually made. Their condition is not perfect, so their prices are in accordance.

If you are looking for compression-type or alternative style quilt hangers, go to Robinson's Woodcrafts. I don't think you will be disappointed.

Another excellent source for quilt hangers is Plain and Simple Quilts. They also have a nice line of New Amish style quilts.
