Breathing New Life Into a Vintage Quilt
In this continuation of my quilt coat project, I dive deeper into the transformation process. After carefully hand-stitching logs and cutting out the pattern pieces, I prepare the quilt for serging and mending. Watch as I share my methods for selecting key areas of the quilt, stitching down loose logs, and reinforcing the fabric to ensure this jacket will not only be beautiful but also wearable. As the project progresses, I'll test the quilt's fabric to ensure colors stay vibrant and don’t bleed during washing. This part of the journey is all about precision, creativity, and keeping the integrity of this vintage piece intact.

    • @m.a.b.e.l
      @m.a.b.e.l 2 месяца назад

      Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your thoughts on this quilt. I completely understand and agree that this quilt is incredibly special, and I truly respect your sentiment about keeping it intact. Unfortunately, despite its uniqueness, there was no interest in purchasing it, and it was eventually sold as a 'cutter quilt,' which means it would have likely been discarded. I saw this as an opportunity to give it a new life by repurposing it into something that can continue to be cherished. Quilting itself is rooted in the tradition of recycling and repurposing unused or damaged fabrics, and I believe transforming this quilt into wearable art is in line with that spirit. While the edges may be worn, I want to honor the craftsmanship and beauty of the quilt by turning it into something that can still bring joy. Your appreciation for these quilts means a lot to me, and I hope this explanation helps you see why I feel this is the right thing to do. I’m always open to your thoughts and truly value your perspective!
