If you are coming to Lincoln to spend time at the quilt museum, the Hawley Bed & Breakfast is not far from the museum. The two living rooms on first floor have antique quilts hanging on the walls. The Quilt Study Program dated both quilts as being made between 1890 and 1910. http://www.hawleybb.com/
