Quilts are assembled by two primary methods: piecing and applique. Knitting is not involved in quilt-making. Knitted/crocheted throws/afghans are not known to hold up well over the years and have not established a collectors' market. In the 1970, interest in old quilts peaked, pricing them out of reach of most collector's by the 1990s. There are collectors and dealers, most of whom do business in larger cities like NYC and Chicago. As a newer part of the USA, the western states and west coast has fewer examples. Search online for "antique quilts" and check out museum collections as well.
