What to do? one fabric disintegrated
Washed the completed quilt and one fabric disintegrated. I assume the dyes in the black fabric did this. This fabric was also a looser weave. Regardless, what now? I need ideas and guidance. Should I leave it alone? Try to replicate the blanket stitch and add new fabric for the wings? The blocks were appliquéd by my friend’s mother in 1929. My friend has not given me any preferences. She says it “adds another story.” I told her I would sleep on it. After several weeks, I still have not come up with an answer. The rest of the quilt is fine. I appreciate your suggestions and advice. Thanks.
