Answer:

Maggie is upset.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maggie is about to get married. She expects to get the quilts for her own home, she deserves them for being the daughter who gets married first. She will use those quilts 'for everyday use' as they should be in her own opinion. She will use them to remember her grandparents and her heritage. Dee considers this is nonsense as the quilts should be exhibited as to show off her heritage proudly.

Dee and Maggie are counter characters, thoug sister they are each defending their points of view.
