Today I looked closely at the fabric strips that were used as the binding. They were quite badly worn, with holes in some places. I decided that they were not going to be strong enough to be used as the binding again so I cut them in half and sewed them on as a border. There was no border before and I have found that adding one has helped to strengthen the whole top and square it up a little.
All the seams have been repaired. Patches have been added and as I said I have put on a new border. So the next task is to prepare the backing and the new bindings.
This is the beautiful view from our studio. We had the most gorgeous Spring day today.
