First off... your quilt is beautiful!

Believe I'd create an applique by fussy cutting some of the print fabric... maybe more than one and scatter them around the quilt. Or, let that be the place you put your label. It could be no larger than a business card and embroider the date or something.

I agree with lowjane and grammysharon, fuse the area and then stitch to secure then -applique over the problem.

At Sew and Tell, a guild member explained how she "embellished" over an area where she made a mistake.
The area had huge pleats quilted so she appliqued over it with a Star vs. tearing out the stitches. She then added a few more stars of different sizes.

The stars on the quilt were a big hit. I hope this helps you with your quilt.

I agree with a poster upstream - slip a piece of fusible tape into the area and press it down to hold the two parts together. Then use the hidden applique stitch to keep it in position. Just google "applique tutorial" and you should be able to find a youtube video that shows it clearly. Wish I were there to help you - I just rescued a tear in a freshly completed quilt by appliqueing a leaf over the torn area.

I once had a quilt (for my son) that I wanted to take out in the yard and burn. The flannel backing that I bought at WM kept slipping and causing puckers. It took my husband and I both working to get it through the sewing machine....but I was begging...".please, let's just take it out and burn it!" It turned out nice and my son uses it a lot. Take the wonderful advise these good people give you and keep going.

I know applique sounds a bit scary, but if it is just a small spot of loose fabric, you could go to Walmart or any other fabric store and find a small patch and sew it on....there are many very pretty ones....just stick down and sew around the edges with tiny stitching and nobody will ever know it wasn't a planned thing!

I just remembered, I made some "leaf" appliques for my son's quilt. I didn't like the bottom so I just put the leaves on. He didn't want any flowers, etc. so the quilt was done using leaf and forest colors. The leaf appliques looked nice.

Can you not slip stitch this parted seam together? Carefully and tightly and it should hold and won't show. I think the quilt is beautiful!

I hope this works. I just finished this "teddy bear" quilt. I had a dark brown piece in the nose area and didn't like it so I used steam a seam light and ironed on a new, lighter fabric. When it is quilted I hope no one will ever know. I am sure you can fix your quilt seams with steam a seam or a similar product.
