My son's quilt from his grandma is going to need some repairs soon and I need the expertise of the group. It is not an 'old' quilt per-say. Just one that he was given a few years back that has been loved and thus washed frequently. As a result of the washings and use, the binding is wearing out. The rest of the quilt is fine, it is just the binding that is wearing through in areas and getting close in many others. My questions is how do I repair it so he can continue to use it? These are the ideas I came up with but if you have another let me know:
1-Make a slightly larger binding and attach it over the existing binding (I assume with this one I'll want to do this before the existing is too gone and raggy so it lays and looks better)2-Cut the binding off and start fresh.
3-Remove the existing binding and replace. (Not really leaning toward this one as it would be a lot of work)So recommendations?
