Hope these can now go to quilt APPRECIATORS!!
I had an aunt who had a quickie yard sale when my grandma passed, she had it before anyone from out of state even got in for the funeral. My grandma had died suddenly and had no will. Aunt didn't care what anyone else might want. She lived nearby and wanted to hurry and get it done. Quilts and other handwork were sold off. She thought they weren't worth keeping. All she valued was furniture, china etc. She and her daughter had taken what they wanted. I was just 15 then but I still remember how angry the family was with her. Big arguments. Word to the wise - plan ahead, make a will, mark items and give them to family while you're able!
