Do you mean the seams that are in each block corner- connecting one strip to the other? If so,if it were me, I would undo those blocks, and resew those seams---- either your stitch size is too large- go down to 1.6, or your final strip in the block is way to small...
when doing a strip block it is good to try to keep that last strip wide so it's not just a crumb on the corner. I don't know about using interfacing or appliqué over undone stitches...never did that. Especially if that is for someone else, I would want it as good as I could do it. |
I agree with everyone-use fusible interfacing and then maybe an applique of something such as a heart then add a few more hearts so no one will ever know!!

Have you already quilted it? there is product--not Fray Check, but something else, that will seal it without becoming stiff but can't remember the name of it.

When I finished a memory quilt made with men's dress shirts sewn into string blocks, I was checking for threads that needs trimming. I was horrified to find that some corners on a couple of the blocks had pulled loose. It's not really that noticeable, but I know it's there. Is there any way to fix or cover the spots? Thanks

I hate fray check. Anytime I have used it, it gets really hard. Might just as well use clear nail polish.
