Here is an antique quilt that I have been repairing and restoring for a niece and nephew. It was made by his grandmother, maybe 70 - 80 years ago.

Some of the patches were just rotted away and I removed them and replaced with some vintage fabric that I had. There was one area of the background fabric that was deteriorating so badly that I appliqued some other yellow fabric right over it. (See picture)

Looks very nice. I am sure they will treasure it :thumbup:

I'm so sorry, but, I can's tell where the repairs are!:) Good save, great job! I have a couple that I need to repair also. You have given me inspiration!

How beautiful!! :)

Beautiful quilt!

What a wonderful thing to do. That quilt is going to be loved and cherished by them and you saved it.

How wonderful that you are able to save the quilt! It will be a real treasure!

Great job! This is a great gift to your niece and nephew. Hope they don't plan to use it as an every day quilt, though!

Good job.

Done very professionally!
