Repairing an older quilt
My mom made this quilt in the 70s or 80s. It's ALL handwork. No machine piecing. Her first and only quilt ever. My sister has had it forever. I'm not too jealous. ;-). The problem is that it's all falling apart. It's not bonded. Just sewn together. One side has a border around the edge.
I suggested cutting it apart and sew the salvaged squares together. My sister would rather just keep using it. And zig zag the holes. Yikes. THe bating is also falling apart and the backing has some tears in it also. Not just the holes.
