MILWAUKIE -- The blanket on your bed or the quilt stored in your closet might have more than sentimental value -- it could be worth money, said certified quilt appraiser Eileen Trestain.

Quilts can range in value from $100 to more than $100,000. The most expensive quilt Trestain has appraised is worth about $5,000.

On Saturday, she'll provide quilt appraisals as part of Airing of the Quilts, a show at the Milwaukie Center."

Clean out your cupboards, those old quilts could be worth $$
