I have a quilt that is over 100 years old that was only stored in a cedar chest the last 25 years & now has terrible stains from the cedar tannins. When my mother tried to donate it, I rescued it to my care. I was shocked when she told me it had been in the "trunk" & I thought she meant the car trunk. Thankfully it was not treated that disrespectfully! I have had no luck getting the stains out. Any suggestions out there? Your quilt is beautiful, as are sooo many on this site. I love to see all the personal ideas of each different artist.
