The value of these types of quilts is generally determined by their age, material, and construction method. Period and Style
The fabric selection—specifically the bright lime greens, large-scale floral prints, and polyester-looking solid blocks—strongly points to the mid-to-late 20th century. This is often referred to as a "Grandma's scrap quilt" because it uses leftovers from various household sewing projects.

2. Construction (Utility over Art)

Piecing: These are large, irregular "hit-or-miss" blocks. This is a functional utility style meant for daily use rather than a formal, intricate pattern like a "Double Wedding Ring."

Quilting: From the photos, the stitching appears to be a functional machine-quilted or hand-tied "utility" stitch. Large-scale machine quilting generally brings a lower price than dense, intricate hand-quilting.

3. Size
At 67 x 90 inches, this is a generous size, roughly equivalent to a Twin or Full/Double bed size. Large quilts are generally easier to sell than small throws because they are more versatile for bedding.

4. Material
Many 1970s utility quilts used polyester double-knits or cotton-poly blends. While durable, collectors typically pay a premium for 100% cotton quilts from earlier eras (pre-1950s). If the fabric feels "stretchy" or heavy, it is likely a poly-blend from the 70s.
