These quilts were made from fabrics that I believe were at least some feedsacks. They were made by the aunt of my grandmother in law. And seeing as she is 92 next month, they are quite old! I am hoping to find fabric to replace the blocks that are wearing out. Also, the binding on the plaid quilt is very worn too.

I would appreciate any suggestions for finding similar fabric and how to repair this. It is machine pieced and hand quilted. Thanks!
