Hello, I’m new to quilting and have a question .
Where would be the best place to find help with these questions.
I recently found in storage a quilt top my grandmother was crossstitching before she passed away in 1994 at the age of 90. It is a beautiful song bird pattern and she had completed about 3/4 of the pattern. I am completing the cross stitching and then plan to quilt it. The top is very yellowed from age and storage. What is the best way to clean it? I do not want to wash the printed pattern for quilting. Should I complete the quilting before washing or is there a way to clean it with out washing pattern off. I’m new to quilting and don’t want to mess up this quilt which is priceless to me.
