i agree, why would you assume the worst of people who decide to sell off some quilts,

they might have cherry picked items to keep and are now allowing others to enjoy her work.

it could be that the family needs money, in today's economy its not far from reality, and they want to raise money to send their children to college.

i'm sure the grandmother would be thrilled to know that her quilts and stash financed the higher education of her grandchildren.

my point is don't think the worst of people you do not know their story and should not pass such harsh judgement against them.
