My Grand Mother's gift to me.

It's beautiful and a treasure. You said you didn't use it though, and it brought to mind something I was told a long time ago. I paraphrase "even though you treasure something, your children will not, unless it's something they see being used. It will have no importance in their lives. So if you want it to be treasured for generations, use it, tell the story of why you love it, who made it and who they were then when it's passed down it will continue to be loved and treasured."

Love the quilt! More than the quilt, I love the way you cherish it. My youngest daughter is like that with the quilts I make her. You would think I gave her a million dollars if she gets a quilt for Christmas. Warms my heart!
