Quilt Appraisal
Introduction
In February 2017 the Australian Council of Quilters (ACQ) agreed to adopt a national system of quilt valuation. The system will be based on the QuiltNSW
model that SCCQ uses. As part of the adoption of a national model, all quilt guilds agreed to replace the term ‘Valuation’ and ‘Valuers’ with ‘Appraisal’ and ‘Appraisers’.
SCCQ follows the QuiltNSW procedures and general pricing, in assessing traditional and modern quilt costs. However, we do not appraise art quilts unless the techniques used by the quiltmaker fall within the parameters of our appraisal protocol, as we may not have the expertise to assess these quilts. We recommend that these quilts be referred to QuiltNSW.
Appraisers
SCCQ has an Appraisal Team comprising a maximum of 14 recognised appraisers, working under the guidance of the Appraisal Coordinator, Margaret Herzog.
The current appraisers are:
Margaret Herzog
Debbie Adam
Jill Bennett
Daiva Ceicys
Delma Elliott
Liz Foster
Sammy Gaskill
Dorothy Hanbridge
Sheila Kelly
Robyn Sammons
All Appraisers maintain confidentially in all matters relating to individual appraisals.
Quilt Appraisal
It is important to recognise that the appraisal system is designed to calculate an estimated replacement cost.
Each quilt is assessed by 3 Appraisers. These Appraisers cannot be a member of the same club as that of the quiltmaker submitting the quilt for appraisal. No applicant or Appraiser can remain in the room when her own quilt is being assessed.
5 main categories are used to help assess and cost elements that contribute to the replacement value of a quilt. They are:

5 main categories are used to help assess and cost elements that contribute to the replacement value of a quilt. They are:

- Workmanship.
- Degree of Difficulty.
- Quilting.
- Binding.
