Thanks for posting the pictures. How sad to see such a beautiful quilt so damaged. I'm trying to repair an antique applique quilt that is getting holes, just from wearing out. The quilt label is off. The binding is worn through. I think someone washed it carelessly. I inherited it, and don't know it's history. I'm not having good luck with appliqueing patches or using a fusible. The fusible makes the patch so thick, stiff, and noticable. The applique is pulling already thin threads. Maybe I need an even thinner needle and thread.
Anymore suggestions for repairing quilts? Let's get off the smoking rant. (Don't smoke, never smoked, but would really like to repair this quilt as well as possible.)
