I love the chotchky look, but, (BUT) I still think a quilt should have some kind of function other than just hanging around. (now, the hanging around can be on walls where you're trying to block cold/hot air for comfort in your home, thats useful.)You can still use a quilt, covered with beads and stones, on any bed if its used by adults.
I'm not harsh, I think antiques are fine, too, if you can use them - whats the point in having old chairs etc around cluttering the house if you can't sit on them; or have old jewelry if you don't wear it - (I guess I'm fuction over form) lol sharet
