I understand that she probably likes wrapping her little girls up in a quilt that her great grandma made (and great grandma would love that as well) but what happened is why she needs to be very careful. They have a dog in the house... and the dog used the quilt as a chew toy. She asked me if I could patch this up. I have attached pictures... do you guys have any suggestions? I am so glad the little appliques were not damaged. Please let me know. Thank you.
    That looks ,more like a stress tear. It is probably due to the age of the quilt. I would try to match the fabric and
    cover the tear. That is a really an old quilt to be using as an everyday quilt. Hope you are able to fix it...
