I pull the fabric together so it overlaps and then stitch--If I have machine stitched/quilted, then I just use a zig-zag or decorative stitch. I've had to fix mostly flannel quilts for the kids. They do not care if their seams get sewn twice or if they don't look like they did new. For a fancier quilt, I would use tiny blind stitches to repair the seam.
