Understanding Beautiful Antique Quilt
How to repair antique quilt?
A beautiful, totally hand-pieced, hand-quilted work of art is in my home but doesn't get used due to frayed and worn binding. Does anyone know if it's safe to remove the old binding and replace it with new? It is in great condition, other than the tattered binding. Thanks in advance for any sincere answers.
P.S. I am not a quilter but do love the design and handiwork that went into making this one!
The main concern is repairing it to make it useable. Monetary value is secondary, though it would be interesting to know if its monetary value far exceeds its sentimental worth.
Answer:
You might check with antique dealers before touching the quilt. If it is really old, it could be very valuable & doing anything to repair it could seriously reduce the value. If your quilt really is valuable, you'll need to find a professional conservator to help you do any appropriate repairs. Contact art galleries and museums to help you find such a conservator.
There was a quilt on Antiques Road Show that was worth something like half a million dollars! The people just had it folded and lying over the back of a chair. Little did they know what they had.
If you were to find out the quilt were really valuable, you might want to have it framed, donate it to a gallery, definitely treat it better, or sell it!
Otherwise, take it to any quilt store in your area and talk to the folks there. They are experts and love to talk quilting and they have the highest quality fabrics and may even be able to help you find someone to do the repairs. They also have classes and could readily teach you to do the repairs yourself so the quilt keeps its beauty.
Your quilt sounds awesome. I'm trying to make one that looks like the really old ones our grannies' grannies made.
