Hang the quilt, makes wonderful conversation piece when people see it hanging.

If you want to look at it all the time hang it on the wall. As quilt3311 said it is a conversation piece and a family treasure.

I saw a really neat display for hanging a quilt high up: use an old Cherry-picking ladder. Lean it against the bedroom wall. You can display very small quilts at the top, where the step is narrow, with wider steps down toward the floor. This kind of ladder display might work to protect your treasure and display it, too.

You know I only have one quilt for my husband and I. I have been quilting for 4 years and gave them all away to my family. We have 2 dogs and 3 cats 4 of them get on the bed, our big dog sleeps on the floor. She would love to snuggle with us, but just to big. I need to start making for myself and displaying them on a quilt rack.
Good Luck

I agree with hanging on some type of quilt holder.

Ok, here it is. Pulling it out to take a picture was the first time I'd seen the whole thing in 20 years.

I can't put it on a ladder or a quilt rack, because of the cats. They will find a way to nap on it!

That is so pretty. Hope you can find a safe way to display it.

Beautiful quilt and a wonderful memory for you. I agree with the others and would hang the quilt on a wall so it can enjoyed everyday.
