Sorry to hear about your nibbled quilt! ...Hi, Beth. Sorry to hear about your nibbled quilt! My book has lots of instructions for various types of repairs - http://www.annquilts.com/book.html. Also, I've got several posts with instructions and step-by-step photos - http://annquiltsblog.blogspot.com/search/label/how-to. Or if you live near Chicago, you could come by for a lesson. In any case, I always recommend to people with family quilts to write down the history of the quilt and quiltmaker - your grandmother's name, where she was living and what her life was like at the time she made the quilt, how it came to you, etc. All this information makes it much more special as a family heirloom. You can keep the information, preferably with a photo of the quilt attached, with your other important papers.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10041189836826670736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4749067267697338963.post-67835518683174282702015-08-15T21:06:03.605-05:002015-08-15T21:06:03.605-05:00Do you have a tutorial on how to repair?

I think this is what makes quilting so appealing - each and every quilter has the opportunity to make wonderful design decisions.
