Repairing an Old Quilt

Torn to New

This is Husband’s fishing quilt and it needed some

HELP. This is the quilt that I have been using these post-knee surgery, Here is how to make a quilt block.

This post is from 2014 from The Quilt Ladies Site – Moving it all over !

After it’s last wash it just seems to fall apart ! I try to fix them, the owner of the quilt in our family will usually not give their quilt up !

Laying out each place to repair

Pinned it really good

And used applique stitches, by hand.

They were all on seams, fabric becoming weak?

I think just YEARS of use.

Looks pretty good !

Ready for many more years of wear !
