She gave it to me and some of the fabric is pretty bad but some still could be used.

My question is the fabric is very thin I guess from wear and being used. anyone know what I could do to this fabric so it would be stronger, she really wants some of the fabric in the quilt so she can see it,the color is still bright but way to thin.. thanks for your help....Carol
What I'd do is simply cover the entire quilt with a some sort of sheer fabric, if you can find one thin enough to let the originals show thru.
