fix what you can then stipple quilt it. that will hide a lot of thing.

What a cute quilt.

Haven't had the seam come undone but in repairing a quilt my mother made years ago I used the fusible webbing to repair frayed areas. I might also do a serpentine stitch instead of a straight stitch on the seams. Easier to cover up fixed areas.

Oh you are so close, you can finish this and no one will be the wiser, except us board members. All the suggestions are good. What a wonderful gift you have made. It is a lovely quilt and your FM quilting is very nice.

Some good advice was given. Always better to walk away rather than try to fix something while upset and frustrated. One thing I have learned on this forum is that most things are fixable.

Dont stress over it.
There are some great suggestions that are posted here. Hope one of them works for you. Kirsten |
Wow, your quilt is great! With all the suggestions you will have this fixed in no time! Your free motion looks great for being the second quilt... The receiver of the quilt is lucky! Your free motion reminds me of a "Leah Day" style. How did you teach yourself how to quilt?

I would suggest an applique, maybe a heart. If all else fails, you can make 3 yo-yos and use tiny rickrack or ribbon for stems and make a little bouquet. There is always a way to fix things. Please don't despair.

If you find you can't fix the problem, you can make her something else with the quilt, like a bed runner or a tote bag...or do what I do, go to Macy's.com and shop!!
