If you hadn't put the pins around I would not have seen it! You did a great job!

I would leave it as is. You did an excellent job of patching it. I would not tell anyone about it and no one will know.

Excellent fix. If you hadn't pointed it out, I never would have seen the patch. I put a hole through one on the longarm once. My patch wasn't as good as yours but it was for my son and he loves the quilt anyways.

No one will ever notice it. I could barely see it you did such a great job on it. Leave it!

It looks great. I had to really look and even then wondered! THAT BEING SAID. I went to a quilt show this weekend and watched a demo on Bo-Nash. A powder similar to fusible basting. She repaired quilts, wool jackets, Levi’s, blouses. I was very impressed! You should check it out.

I have used Bo-Nash and it is an amazing product. My only recommendation is buy the larger size sheet, can't recall what they call it but they have a small and a large size. I bought the small (it's not tiny) but quickly wished I had gotten the large size. They have a video demo on their website. It's not difficult but a video is always nice.

Don't tell anyone about the patch and I bet no one but you will ever know the difference.

Thanks for all your encouragement. I’m not sure the Bo-Nash will work on this tiny hole. Would I just apply a small raw-edged patch over the hole? Would the patch edges ravel over time?
