Any opinions on that? I know some people think it should be left as it is, but I think my grandmother would rather see me using it -- she was a very practical person. Some of the scraps in the quilt come from clothing sewn by my mother for our family 50 years ago, so it is definitely a treasure.

Thanks for letting me share this with you!
