Ocean Waves... wow.

I think I will find a local guild expert to help me determine how old it is. I actually have a stash of antique fabric (just because I love it). I'll see if anything I have matches. Another nice person on this board explained another method regarding netting so I know there's a few options.

Thanks ladies - I'm glad you all love it as much as me!

All you have to do is applique over the damaged ones.
I would try to get fabric from that era if possible.
Congratulations!! :D:D

That is a beauty, and how lucky for you to be it's new owner.

Beautiful find!

p.s. - I recognize the Britex Fabrics bag in the background. One of my favorite must go to places in San Francisco!
