That's what I thought of too. You could run a new sewing line over the original one holding the binding to the front and then just re-do the hand-stitching on the back. If the new backing makes the binding a bit "short", then just machine stitch a flange on it before you hand-sew the back.

Lovely quilt. Just some well-placed SID around some of the braid sections should hold the new backing in place.
