The Quilt Complex specializes in buying, selling and appraising antique quilts made between 1780 and 1950.
We also offer antique quilt "exhibition packages" for museums and quilt events. Our exhibitions have enjoyed both critical and popular acclaim, nationally and internationally.
TQC provides professional quilt photography, both film and digital. We can photograph your quilt or your collection, and will create a special catalogue for you of your own quilts. We can organize your collection and create a digital inventory for you
The Quilt Complex maintains a Photo Lending Library organized to give use of images of quilts, and other quilt related important historical photographs.
We offer formal, written appraisals for insurance, donation, or retail purposes, as well as simple verbal appraisals. Julie is a well known, acknowledged expert in the field of appraising antique and vintage quilts.
