How wonderful for you...looks like it is in excellent shape. Unfortunately putting it out on display will cause the quilt to show it's age. Being put away, out of light is what is best for a quilt like this.

I have one that my husband's great aunt made and because I had it hanging, some of the fabrics are not looking so well. I will have to try do some extensive restoration to save the quilt. When I got it, it was in almost perfect condition, having been stored most of it's life.
