How have the quilts been laundered in the past? Are you not interested in keeping and using them yourself?Magpie Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930036522719103192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8389379510958307370.post-6166649541022259932010-02-19T15:33:34.110-08:002010-02-19T15:33:34.110-08:00I dont know that they are worth much, but you coul...I dont know that they are worth much, but you could loan or donate to a museum.
