OOPS SORRY..IT DOUBLE POSTED..CHECK THE OTHER POST... SORRY AGAIN


I made a Christian D9P for my dear mother-in-law (86). I put the entire quilt together and just did tying with yarn. It turned out beautiful, until I washed it. I am so P.O'ed now. The fabric that is kinda tanish/yellowish with the big cross's on it... frayed in several different spots.. JUST the area with that fabric in it. The spots where there are seams with the different fabric... all is okay. So now what can I do? She loves her quilt...I did also..until I washed it. At first I saw one small spot, so I used fabric glue on that... but...dang..now I found many spots..I would have to call it MY GLUE QUILT. It measures 108 x 108. I am so mad, I could spit fire..

without seeing, it is hard to say...perhaps you could slip small pieces of heat n bond lite under those pieces and fuse it closed..OR perhaps you can get some very sheer tulle or oganza and cut squares the same size as your patches, then stitch over it to hold that fabric in place, which will also add an artsy element to the quilt!
