When I add a patch, I use thin amounts of School Glue (as it washes out) to keep the fabric in place before I stitch in.
Great inclusion to this very informative video🙂
I’d also recommend cutting a small piece of woven fusible and inserting it inside that edge tear, prior to hand stitching the repair. It just gives the delicate fabric, that is already compromised, some support, and it is then less likely to tear away from the new thread used in the repair.
What do you mean by woven fusible?
@@TheSuperDoum It’s a thin piece of fusible material inserted in between the fabric layers. When you iron over it , it essentially “glues” or fuses in place strengthening the area.

So young, so smart. informative video. Thanks exactly what I was searching for today.
Thank you so much. My BF has wanted me to mend his mother's damaged quilt and I've been nervous. I'm feeling more confident now.
My husband has asked me to fix the quilt his mother made and this video gave me great advice. Now I have to go try it. Good luck to you too.
I bought a beautiful vintage patchwork quilt at Goodwill that needs a few patches repaired. I will use glue before I sew it since it will wash out. I feel like that would make it easier to work with.
Very helpful, thank you!
I made a quilt about 20 years ago. I wouldn't call it vintage. Some of the squares have come unsewed. It's the oddest thing. I had an idea of adding something over the damaged areas. A big star maybe. I think it would add more interest to the quilt. Your solutions are very helpful to the new quilters. Thank you.
I think you also need to consider how old the quilt is, since you can really do more damage to an old quilt using modern fabrics and polyester thread. Also, there are commercial products more gentle than Oxy-clean for washing old quilts. Washing, even in a big tub, can cause damage if the quilt isn't handled gently -- never wrong or twist, don't lift it out by one end because that puts a strain on the aged seams.
Thank you for this add …worth knowing
Thanks for making this video. I learned alot how to repair my hubby's quilt.
Thank you so much for this!
Very good tutorial. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for sharing this. I was really starting 2 despair & think there was nothing I could do,which just made me want to cry looking at this quilt...All the black & white squares are torn or falling apart (becuz my mom kept using them too often & not being very careful/gentle w/them & then sticking them in the washer & dryer afterwards too often 2. These are quilts that i love,but she doesn't really care that muchvv about,becuz they're from my dad's side of the family) & the batting is showing..I'm not even a quilter,& I just recently started learning how 2 crochet & loom knitting,but I have wanted 2 learn quilting for a long time,just don't think I can afford the materials like as a hobby rn at least..Irregardless,I have a few books on quilting & know how to sew by hand,& have a few kinds of fabric for sewing(& will buy some batting),so I really wanted 2 see what if anything could be done 2 salvage this quilt b4 it's too late..I really am so greatful that you made this video & can't thank u enuf! Will sub & keep a look out 4 more of your videos as well now..
I am not a quilter however going to try to repair a quilt that was made for me 27 years ago. For hand stitching should I use certs threads and needles. Thanks for sharing
I wonder why the black fabric is the one that seems to deteriorate most often. Something in the dye? Maybe stronger pigment?
I think it has to do with the black dye. Black fabrics will get frayed or dry rotted easier than others.
there's a ragged rip inside a square, it is a very old patchwork made by my great great aunts
Thank you for this. I know it’s an old video but when you soaked the quilt in oxy, how long did you soak it and did you rinse it? Also, did you hang it out on the line? Cheers
Repair is slow going because a normal quilting hand sewing needle won't go through material easily
I bought a beautiful little quilt that is hand quilted and appliqued that has an area where the white muslin top has a strip of small worn holes. Is there something I can iron on that would be clear and support the fabric. Cutting holes is out of the question as the applique and quilting are too complicated. I'm thinking of something like a combination of stitch witchery, liquid skin, and muslin fiber or iron on pattern somewhat like you fix a hole in leather or vinyl. Maybe carefully needling stitch witchery under the holes and ironing it with parchment paper?? Just thought of that. In the mean time it's put away. Thank you for any ideas.
You can find fine tulle in the bridal section of the fabric store and stitch a small section over the original fabric. It's see-through and will protect the fabric.
@@tkimmel8260 Great idea... hmmmmm thank you so much. =) It's a pretty little quilt that someone took a LOT of time hand stitching and I hate to see it fall on harder times.
I saw on Amazon a fabric mender that is actually made up of minuscule pieces of muslin to patch fabric. It is called “Supermend fabric bonder” has a red label. New skin would be scratchy when dries
@tkimmel8260 Absolutely this. It's what a professional quilt conservator recommended for one of my antique quilts.
Wow, NM.
What do u call the last stitch..?? The figure 8 one..??
My Quilt is vintage also but maybe 30% of the squares are disintegrating. Is there a fabric glue, or something to prolong its use? I am disabled and can maybe do one or 2.
The last one is like lacing a sneaker, right? That'll hold but maybe darning it when you have the time will protect it and make a nice looking mend. I hate darning but for a vintage/heirloom quilt, I'd do it little by little.

Just get it done quilts. Help I've got a hole.
How do you find fabrics to match (vintage)
I found most fabric stores have them or something with a similar feel.
Oops, I washed it 😬
