I have two very old and worn family quilts that I've folded with the good parts showing and displayed in a cabinet. They are nice to see and a stranger would not know they are very worn. I also have old quilts cut up and used in a variety of ways--these have all been purchased from others or have been given to me as gifts. Not knowing their history there is no sentimental attachment but I do wonder how they came to be and enjoy looking at them.
