Sew them into a quilt, and add sashings if you'd like. Adding a border will also make the quilt a bit bigger~

Since they are your grandmothers, why not frame them and give them to your mom and uncles and their kids...nice way to remember her and it will make sure that her beautiful work will be remembered and seen by alot of people....maybe number them and add history about the blocks with each one...
