My Mother recently gave me a very old quilt from her side of the family. It was my Great (at least one great maybe more?) Grandmother who made it, a wedding ring quilt. It was given to me hanging on a hanger in a plastic bag. Now I know that isn't the proper way to store a quilt. It's in fabulous shape and want to keep it that way. But also would love to enjoy it to some degree.

Help. I have gotten conflicting advice on proper storage. I would love easy access to viewing it sometimes but I don't want it ruined either. I've been told acid free tissue paper, keep in the dark, re-fold every couple of months etc.. I just need quilters advice on this.
