Problem Help!!

SewCrazy, the first post indicated this is an Overall Sam pattern
before I sewed appliques all over someone else's quilt I'd discuss it with the owner.
Unless the batting is poly I'd do the fusible under the slit and mark those places with a pin
so you will know a little extra quilting there would not go amiss.

Maybe I can help here (from your favorite fabric buyer). My dear 88 year old sister-in-law has an antique quilt (over 60 years old) that had holes from "just old fabric" that she wanted repaired. Here is what I did. I found some fabric that was as close as I could come with it ( it did turn out every well). I made the hole just enough to be able to turn under the area (a circle ) and I tucked a one inch piece inside the hole and gently using a small knitting needle to smooth the patch in under the top of the quilt on the batting. Then I took a quilting needle and made tiny stitches all the way around the edge of that was folded over and when I finished, you couldn't even find where I did it. Took some time but it was worth it for her. Just an idea for you.
