Another wonderful gift is a lovingly repaired quilt.

If you have an antique quilt that needs to be repaired, you can call me and bring it in for a free consultation. (770-599-0047)  I have a great love and respect for old quilts. I make careful, mostly hand-sewn repairs that are sturdy but completely reversible.  My charge for this service is $15/hr.
