I have my grandmother's graduation gift in the back of my SUV. It has lived a full and useful life for over 50 years. It was a tied postcard scrap quilt. About 15 years ago, I replaced the backing and binding with a light weight upholstery cotton. It became the car quilt and was always folded in half with the backing out. Eventually, the postcard blocks have all shredded so I have been wondering what to do with it. It hasn't enough good left for a cutter anything. I think a humble trip to the burn pile would finish it's noble life perfectly. It has worked very hard and deserves that final tribute. Thanks for posting.
