Yes, QuiltE, I have been doing just that- I think some people think it is maudlin, but I think it is so very warm and comforting. Edie
I think it's a perfect thing to do.
And wonderful that you are including your Mother's and Grandmother's work too!!
Perhaps be sure that all are well labelled, so that when the time comes, your family have no questions as to which quilts are to be used, as well as knowing any stories that go with them.
