At a family meeting to divide some of my Great Aunt's belongings, no one wanted her China set. It was way too fussy for everyone - 3 members of the 'older' generation, 4 members of the Baby-Boomers, & 4 Millennials.

I love that! What a fantastic idea - a new use for a very special family heirloom that you can enjoy every day.
I also love your Nighshift shawl. I'm working on one of those now, too.
