Using bedding I remember from my own childhood I have made another patched quilt hanging. I spent a long time mending it with a running stich or ‘boro’ method where it has worn so thin in patches it broken up. I really enjoy the slowness of stitching by hand mending and creating marks on the surface similar to my drawn marks.
