To those of you who store quilts in your cedar chest: That is not a good idea as the acid inthe wood will damage your quilt over time. The best storage place is in a pillow case on a shelf where they can "breathe". Or in a chest that has been treated with polyurethane. This will protect them. Never, never store them in a plastic bag. Refold them from time to time. I have learned the hard way with some I made several years ago and didn't know any better.
