Default Wedding Quilt Storage idea?

My Niece asked me to make her a quilt as a wedding gift using her wedding colors as a basis for the quilt. Her sister gave me her bridesmaid dress so I would have the actual color to work with. I'm wondering if I could use the dress to make a storage bag to store the wedding quilt in (we are in California so quilts are not used very often here). The dress is made from 93% Poly and 5% spandex and I was thinking I could line it in quilting cotton. Or use strips of the dress with cotton and line that with quilting cotton. Do you think that would work or do you see any issues with using the fabrics this way? I don't want to make a storage bag that will ruin the quilt over the years causing it to deteriorate....
