Iowa Quilt 5th Grade Webster Elem

In my 5th grade class in Elementary school we studied Iowa history.  Mrs. De Cook and Mr. Hamilton, assigned us each a part or thing about Iowa, we drew it, and I assumed it was ironed onto fabric.  This quilt was made by the class.  It hung in the class throughout the year, and they said it would be saved and given to one of us upon graduation.  Little did I know they drew my name out of the hat, and Mr. Hamilton who I invited to my graduation party (ex track coach, and all around inspiring guy) showed up with this gem.  Now I have been moving it around for the last 15 years.  What do I do with it?  Keep storing it in the linen closet?  Maybe I should re gift it!
