I agree with Karen, someone is managing them and doing it well. The women from necessity made those first quilts from whatever they had on hand, now the object of making them seems to be something entirely different.<br />By the way, we didn't get snow, but the bottom fell out of the thermostat. 2*C is the high for today. Do you have a spare room?<br />quiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01373821588133189096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7033463089097940392.post-70565184922667535132012-11-04T22:08:50.159-05:002012-11-04T22:08:50.159-05:00Gee's Bend is part of modern quilt history, wh...Gee's Bend is part of modern quilt history, whether one likes the quilts or not.....and the world would be a dull place indeed, if we all liked the same things!

I think someone must be managing them and putting prices on things for them. Really $55 for that square was way, way too much - you paid for their signature it seems on the back of the quilt square more than anything. The quilts on the couch are nice but if they are for sale I wouldn't be sitting on them :) Someone must be managing them big time! Some of the quilts are artistic and modern looking - I guess it is all in the eye of the beholder!<br />Have fun in Florida :) enjoy the sun.Karen - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.com
