Just check this quilt out. Isn't it beautiful, was lying there abandoned. The lady tried to fix a spot on it but needs to be redone.

This is the side scallop

The lady at the quilt shop thinks I should take it apart and fix the spots that way, then requilt it by machine. And she thinks I should put white along the bottom and applique the scallops to it so I can put binding on it. It does not have binding at this time.

That quilt has a wow factor. Yes I would fix it but as far as adding binding ect I would not do that. leave it as is minus the fixed spots. I would love to make one of those quilts.
