Hand Quilting

I think I want to baste another vintage top for hand quilting while we travel this summer. I do love this four patch!

It needs a few repairs. See the hole?

And this block needs the seams resewn. There are probably a few more that I haven’t found yet.

The worst issue is that it doesn’t lay flat.

I need to remove and re-sew the borders. You can see by the stitching below that it is machine sewn.

I thought I might quilt it with this perle cotton.

It doesn’t look too bad.

I’m going to look at a few other options before I commit.

Have a great day!
