Default old quilt

Good morning Dama,
In the mid seventies one of my friends grand mother who was in her mid eighties made me some quilts. She stuffed them with the cotton out of a matress. Yes, they stuffed them in place of using batting. It was my experience that they fell apart fairly easy.
I ended up making teddy bears out of the ones she my for my two DD. Believe me, I broke many needles sewing through that cotton.
I ended up using the larger quilts (regular size bed) for mattress pads. I wonder where they are now?
