Lovely quilt. Not time to read all of the posts, but if someone else didn't say it: do not put it back in plastic or the attic, neither are good for long term storage of quilts. Have you considered donating it back to your church for a raffle quilt?Originally Posted by CindyinNY
Years ago, I won a raffle at our church bazzar for two twin size quilts. It is cross stitched and hand quilted. I made the mistake of letting my son use one and it got ruined but I still have the other one. It's been in a zipped plastic bag and in my attic for years.I don't have a need for it since we don't have twin size beds anymore. I'm thinking of selling it.

Just lovely -------- fold it lengthwise and put it across the foot of a bed. It will be seen and enjoyed - much better than stored in the attic (in a plastic covering - NO!).

University of Nebraska has a historical quilt collection. I am sure they would like to have this one. It is beautiful.
Donating it back to a church for a raffle is also a nice idea.

personally-i would hate to get rid of something so beautiful-but if it is sitting in a bag, in a closet-it is not being honored as the beauiful thing that it is

I don't know what the quilt is worth, but it is beautiful ! Whatever you decide to do with it, I would not put it back in the attic. Attic storage is not good for quilts because of the heat and climate changes. Having said that, your quilt looks to be in good shape.

To me.. the photo of the helpful hubby and dog.. is worth a million.. have to use that for something.. I like the idea of the note pads with that photo on them.. with caption "Honey Do" It would be a hoot..
