My quilt hangs on the back of the couch. It has survived 5 cats and a boat load of washes. It is finally at the point of getting threadbare and the binding is starting to fray. So I will make me a new quilt to love and wash and put under the cat. My DH's quilt is folded on his couch and he uses it regularly. I would be sad if my quilts didn't get used. That is what they were made for - they are not objects d'art. Those would hang on the wall.
