    What a treasure. If you aren't going to be able to get to it right away, you may want to roll it or fold it in thirds so that you don't get permanent creases at the folds. Also they will fade at those creases. Not criticizing, just giving you a tip

    Oh, definitely quilt it! This is so beautiful...and it will really shine after it's quilted. I'm sure you'll do a beautiful job on it.

    That is so nice that you have a wonderful memory from your grandmother. One that you never knew about. I am sure you will treasure it always.
