Quilt restored!!





Both ends of this quilt were tattered to say the least. Many triangles also were worn. I selected similar fabrics from the '30s to make the repairs...Many blocks had to be completely replaced and others I was able to replace only the worn pieces. I hand quilted the areas that needed it and rebound the whole quilt.
See what you think...this look several months to complete.
