Download preview sheets for week one, week two and week three.

We chose eBay for our auction site to attract as many potential buyers as possible (all the proceeds go to support our mission). eBay donates back all listing/selling fees for all items that we sell through their MissionFish program. The minimum bid for all quilts will be $50. Shipping and handling will be $10/quilt. PayPal, money orders, cashier’s checks and personal checks will be accepted. Quilts will be shipped when payment is received. Personal checks may be subject to a 10-14 day hold.

To search for the PAR quilts on eBay, enter the Alliance for American Quilts into the Search bar on the eBay homepage. This will bring up all Alliance auction items currently up for bid (keep in mind that auction items will only show up during the exact timeframe of the auction – not before or after).

The Put A Roof Over Our Head quilts were donated by their makers to The Alliance for American Quilts in celebration of its move to Asheville, North Carolina. The Alliance wants to thank all the artists for their generosity. All quilts are 19.5" h x 15" w. Quilts are displayed in the order they were received.
