There are too many holes for this idea, but on our charity comfort quilts at church we always put (applique) a cross stitched Bible verse of encouragement. With just-starting quilters, I sometimes use the Bible verse to cover that place where the iron singed a seam too much, or there was big pucker in a seam, or we found a hole in a seam AFTER we put it together. Works out Just great...... I did like the yo-yo idea. 6 Small ones in a circle to look like flowers. Then again, lots of work with no guarantee that it won't happen again. I guess it is time to go to Target or Kmart and get her a purchased comforter to damage and LEAVE Grandma's quilts alone!!!!
