It is surely a treasure and beautiful. Hopefully you can use it for another 43 years. This is our 43rd year too.

What a wonderful job you did! Can't even tell there was ever a problem! Looks like quilt my great aunt made for my parents wedding in 1941. I have it now...binding is shot. Don't know if I should attempt repair or not.

You have inspired me. I have 2 vintage quilts that are quite worn in spots. Wasn't sure that I could repair. Seeing how beautiful yours is makes me want to give it a try.
