Oh, those are so wonderful. I always picture someone sitting by their lamps in the evening working on projects like them. I would love to have an antique quilt to put on a wall. Great treasures you have there.

Just covers? My goodness. I would hang on to them for sure. Even without history, they are wonderful.
