I would display as many as I had walls for. What good are they packed away where they can't be seen?

Is this too much? I know people that do ceramics and have figurines all over the place. A relative said, my house looks to quilty! I just said, I love my quilts and like to look at them. Just curious what others think.
I would have said, Thank you, that's just the look I was going for.

What your relative said was just plain rude! It smacks of the ugly head of jealousy.

I keep them moving, on and off the couches and stands. I never get tired of them and love to change them.

There is never toooooooo many quilts. I have quilts and quilt tops and quilt pillows and quilted wallhangings. I love the way they warm up a space and bring a smile to my heart. My grandmas both quilted and I have a quilt from each of them. Since my one grandma died before my parents married I never knew her so it feels like I have something from her, not just the quilt but also the fact that I am a quilter. :lol: :lol:

Glad everyone agrees that a person can display what they want. I just never expected anyone to say anything and was taken off guard. Thanks everyone for making me feel better and a couple of laughs with it. I won't quit displaying my quilts and I am glad everyone does display their quilts. My relative can be a pain but it is her problem. Thanks again

Isn't that like asking "how much fabric is too much fabric?" Never too many quilts, never too much fabric.
