Default Yes (?)...No (?)

My grandmother made a quilt for each of her grandchildren. When she died a quilt top was found, wrapped in tissue with my name on top. Mother said she never liked the way it went together in the center and that was why, evidentally, she had never quilted it. I've kept it all thesse years never knowing what to do with it. It's snow white and gingham blue and I love it and would, also, love to be able to use it however, the center does need attention and possibly redone and, as she was up in years, some of the stitches holding the seams together are huge. My dilemma is, and always has been, should I or should I not alter what she has done to repair it. It serves no purpose wrapped in tissue and tucked away and forgotten. My gut feeling at my age is to repair it and quilt it but I'm open to your thoughts.
