DIY Quilt Patch

This weekend, I've had plenty of time to catch up on various projects I've been meaning to get to. One of these is patching the one little burn hole in my $12 Goodwill Outlet quilt.

I knew that I wanted to use a piece of an old shirt or sweater to mend it, and I found the perfect thing in a thrifted Christmas sweater! I just cut a piece into a heart and hand-sewed it on. Check it out:






Done! I like that it's a little imperfect and homemade looking. A sweet little patch, and when I want to change it, I can just cut the stitches out and try another design :)

Always,
Amanda
