It's a spectacular quilt, but maybe the person who made it is the person who donated it.
Maybe the donor gave it just so one person who has to accept charity could have a chance to own something really nice.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to be a party pooper, but I would put it back so it's given to someone getting the charity. Something similar happened in an old episode of Joan of Arcadia, where the donor specifically wanted some donated clothes to go to someone in need, and they sold them and used the money instead for the charity.
Maybe that would be fine with the donor, but at least try to find out who it was and get that person's permission before doing something else with the quilt.
