Why not call it a winter quilt and leave it out, it is just too beautiful to put away and not enjoy. I made a 12 Days of Christmas wall hanging a few years ago and so I can enjoy it longer I put it up the day after Thanksgiving and don't take it down until after the fist of the year. I also collect ceramic Christmas Trees and have them on my antique sewing machine in a winter setting that I leave up with my snowmen all winter. I call it a winter scene of evergreen trees not Christmas trees after the holidays. You can do the same with your quilt, it is just so pretty. GOOD JOB.
