found a steamer trunk of old quilts! some questions....

For some reason the last few days have been busy buying ones. Checked out an attic today, and it was looking pretty grim, until we opened an old steamer trunk and found it full of quilts. I know nothing about quilts and would love some info. (I'll also post on the textiles board). I suspect they're not that old (maybe 40s/50s/60s?). Some of them are patchwork and some just gave little tufts of yarn - what are those called? The first one is MINT - wrapped in plastic and never taken out. The simple tufted ones are twin, and the others are larger (double or queen?). Thanks for any info. Any winners here?
