The details in this passage reveal most clearly that Dee (Wangero) has come to steal the family's heirlooms. She goes through her mother's trunk without asking, and then asks for the old quilts without showing any respect for their sentimental value to her mother. This shows that Dee is focused on material possessions and does not consider the feelings of her family members.
