If there are any colors in the quilt that you still like, then rip it into strips of 2 or 3 blocks long. This will give you sections the width of the bed and as long as 2 or 3 rows of blocks.Make a few foot warmers out of them for gifts. You will probably have to lose most of the mustard gold fabric, but you won't have to rip all the seams at once. Border each warmer with the color most becoming to that section of quilt.
Not only have you saved that quilt top, but you've made probably at least 3 nice gifts for next Christmas.
