I have started this new thread to replace the old one which was just too full.
Here is something I'm working on.

Marie - what a wonderful way to repair a quilt! I would have never thought to do it that way, but it looks great!
Judith - I'm so glad you were able to finish that beautiful quilt! It's way too pretty to be stuck in storage :) You always make such wonderful quilts - how long have you been quilting?

Thank you. I really love doing this kind of sewing. It's similar to applique.

It took me 12 years but I finally finished this one. Halfway through quilting it 11 years ago I injured my back so it sat waiting until this year when I finally could finish it. It's 90 inches square and weighs a ton.

Good job Linda!
When my sister got married my mother and I made the bridesmaids dresses out of curtains (new ones) as we couldn't find the color she wanted in the fabric store.

Today I put a lining in a pair of curtains I made about 8 years ago. I used a new white single sheet for the lining. I still need to hem them, but I like how they turned out.

I have been working on repairs on a quilt. Here it is:
She had had several repairs previously on the quilt which consisted of wide machine sewn zig zag stitches to bind the ripped seams which extended all the way through the layers. I decided to cover all the seams with ribbon, seam tape or bias strips - some I constructed by hand. I removed the red ties for the repair then replaced them after the repair. Here are some of my favorite repairs:
Her mother made this quilt out of all the scraps from the clothes made for the siblings. As everyone can see, it is not perfect and it doesn't have to be. The lady was so happy to see it repaired that she gave me more than I had asked for the repair.

My daughter-in-law made me a cute little felted kitty. I thought I had it on a high enough shelf but they found it one night and destroyed it. It appears that no place it high enough to cats.

In this picture he must have thought it was a different kind of mouse.

Our local Dollar General sells Cozy Craft pipe cleaner kits. So far I've made 3: a bluebird in a nest, a brown puppy, and this cute kitten, who looks like our Karl Catnip.
