    Leave it up. It will bring back memories of Christmas when you look at it.

    I definitely agree - I am guilty of this. I made my first applique wall hanging with bunnies for Spring and I loved it so much (even with all its beginner faults !) that I have it up in my den year round. AND my SIL made a beautiful ceramic Christmas Tree for my Mom over 20 years ago that is so beautiful (white mother-of-pearl with colored lights - 30 inches tall) that I leave it up year round. As said - it is my house and my rules

    I still have a pumpkin on my table from October and a Fall wreath on the wall. Nothing wrong with keeping your quilt up as long as it pleases you.

    I definitely agree with you. I would enjoy it a few more weeks anyway. Love it.

    very lovely...you don't have to take it down...leave it up as long as you wish....I read some time ago about a lady who left her artificial Christmas tree up all year long because it made her happy...to each his own and more power to you..

    I would leave it up, you enjoy it and it is your house. I made a nativity wall hang, the First Noel, and it is still up and will probably stay up. My house, I enjoy it.
