How sad that you only got a bag of scrap fabrics from your Grandmother's things. Yet, you have the best of everything because you have her memories and quilts made of what she considered salvageable pieces. These bits and pieces were valuable to her and now you have her wealth to wrap around you. Congrats; make those scraps into quilts, pillows and wall hanging only for you.
