I haven't tried it, but I've seen several sites talk about buttermilk and lemon juice. I'm just including one link. This one uses white vinegar with the buttermilk. A word search of "cleaning quilts with buttermilk" will give you several to read.
The following is a quote from the link below it.
If the quilt is age-marked, soak in a solution of one quart buttermilk and one tablespoon white vinegar to each gallon of water before washing. This won’t damage a cotton quilt.
