This was taken somewhere on those south sea islands on a bus tour, I saw the colours of the flowers match clothing

It probably isn't.
If I had spent that much time making it, I doubt I'd be keen to sell it. I'd keep it as a family heirloom.

I have seen some beautiful, hand made quilts in specialty craft stores & they are massively expensive. You'd expect them to be, I know. But I tend to look and admire but not buy.
