I pieced together a quilt, and noticed a seam is coming apart in the middle of it! I glued it, thinking it was only an inch and now find it's continuing to come apart, about 10" worth.

It will be really hard to take it apart to re-sew it at this point as I've quilted over about 1/2 of the quilt.

I'm wondering, is there a glue that will stay soft and flexible I could use? The part I glued is hard and stiff, and not appropriate for a lap quilt.

Do you have any other ideas? I've thought of sewing over it with invisible thread. I can't really quilt in that spot without ruining the design.

I've thought of a patch of a caterpillar or spiderweb or something.

It's important it looks nice because I am making it for someone else.

This shows the seam that's coming apart.

This is the inch I glued already.
