Default fixing old quilts

Hi,

I have an old quilt that I had when I was little, and I have noticed the binding is coming off, just showing a lot of wear and tear and some of the quilting stitches (hand quilted) are coming undone. How would you go about fixing this?

I have 2 daughters and I know they both want this quilt, so I would like to get it fixed and be able to save it for them. I have told them it does not leave my house until I am gone. It is the favorite quilt to curl up with when people in my house are not feeling well.

Also, I have a friend that would like me to fix hers, I haven't seen it, but she says the backing is raveling and she had it when she was little and her baby is using it, and she would like it fixed.

Any help you can give me on this would be great.
