    Default Don't Overload Washer -- UPDATE

    For those of you who saved me from melting down when I first posted my disaster, thank you. After I quilt feeling sorry for myself, I got to work and fixed the quilt. Here are the before and after shots.

    The fix is just another piece of backing fabric appliqued over the hole and then requilt the area. It's not fancy but it is serviceable.

    Spectacular. Do you have a magic wand, because I would not ever know a tradgedy happened. How did you do it, you must share this great workmanship secret.
