Quilt Restoration
A Practical Guide
by Camille Dalphond Cognac
Softcover book, 128 pages.
Published 1994 by EPM, First Edition.
Wonderful book with common sense guidance, illustrated options and a
treasure chest of shared resources - each quilt problem becomes an exciting
challenge for the quilt owner.
You can learn:
*how to tell a genuine historic find from an ordinary family-trunk quilt
*how to 'steal' fabric from one part of a quilt to replace another
*how Victorian Crazy Quilts can be fixed by insetting embroidered patches
without perforating any of the fragile silk
*how the widespread desecration of early quilt tops in the 20s and 30s
forced quilt restoration to fall into public disfavor.
According to the author, "Ninety percent of damaged quilts can be repaired
or reformatted.".
