Please keep them -- perhaps in a pillowcase where you cannot see them for a while. I have two that I made for beloved aunts and they were returned to me when they died. I now treasure them as it is really all I have from those dear people.
One aunt was in a nursing home and I put her name in large letters all over it as part of the pattern. I used all the names she was called, auntie, Gram, Mrs. ... , etc. I did not want it getting moved around the nursing home. I now cherish the quilt and use it in the guest room.
