Below are some photos of a vintage quilt that I recently repaired and requilted. It belongs to my wife's cousin's husband and was made by his grandmother (deceased). It's the only thing he has that belonged to his grandmother, and it was in REALLY bad shape when we got it. It had a bright orange backing that had seen better days, but more importantly there were about 80 places on the quilt top that required repairs because the stitching had come undone. In one of the dresses, one particular fabric was in shreds, so we replaced that fabric. The batting inside the quilt had disintegrated into pieces as well. So we deconstructed the quilt to remove the old backing and batting, repaired the top, then requilted it with new batting and backing, and rebound it. It should last for many more generations now.
