my grandaughter gave me her quilt to repair. she was referring to actual holes through the quilt. but when i laid it out to mark all of the repairs, i found that this quilt [an early project also] needed additional quilting over sections where the seams are pulling apart. so, lesson learned... the quilting with the minimum required by the batting may not necessarily be enough... the piecing needs to be kept from pulling apart on a quilt that will be treated roughly
