Kelly, thank you❣️ I have some very old fabric items that have badly yellowed. Knowing the chemical involved will help me to find the Australian equivalent.

Thank you for sharing this video, it is amazing how beautiful this process is such a labor of love for the art of quilting!

Yay! This could be another rabbit hole!

Im 75, been sewing since i was 5, and you just gave me a gob of information i did not know. Truthfully, i must have had my head under a rock, not to know some of those things, but i find the older i get, the more i learn and the less i realize i " know". So thank you! I collect old quilt topa and ill never get them all hand quilted in my lifetime and im not rich enough to have someone else quilt them, so ill take your wise counsel and focus on gettind my favorites off the shelf and back to work! 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Hi Kelly if you have a top loader do you empty the water out every time so it is no sitting in water. Loving your video's.

Thank you for the extremely helpful tip, Kelly. 🌷I am always happy to learn something new. 🦋

This is just stunning! What a wonderful thing it is to restore, repurpose and reveal the history of women before us. Thank you so much for sharing.

Thank you! I’ve not had the courage to wash my grandmother’s 95+ year old quilt. Now we will be able to enjoy it!

I love the instruction! Can you do another video of the wonky/fullness and then talk through what you did?

Wow that point is beautiful! I’ll try this method out for sure. Thanks for sharing Kelly!

Gorgeous display of quilts! Thank you so much for sharing!

Thank you beautiful

Wow!! What a talented group of quilters! Such vision and creativity to take these vintage pieces and recreate them into these beautiful, amazing, magnificent pieces! Thank you for sharing the details of each piece, Kelly!

Fabulous Kelly, thank you

Great exhibit!! So enjoyed watching!

The link for restoration is a 2 pound tub. Where did you get the 10 pound tub? I searched Amazon for it but only see 2 pound tubs. Thanks.

Absolutely beautiful what a wonderful display you and your friends should be proud... I have a question like on the wedding ring quilt you said things were added to it did they apply those on?

Thank you Kellie for showing us these quilts.

Congrats Kelly on so many of your BEAUTIFUL pieces in the museum ! ! ! I was fortunate enough to take a class from you in Salt Lake City a few years ago and just drooled over your pillow covers and quilted hankie pieces you brought. You are so VERY talented at preserving the old vintage pieces. Love watching you work your magic on pieces on your CZcams channel. Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us ! !

Old quilts are so fascinating. All the lovely and different fabrics that are used. It's like looking at a time capsule and it always makes me think about the people who made these quilt tops and wonder why they were not finished. I am looking forward to seeing how you quilt this. It's beautiful!

Oh gosh! So easy and pretty! I have lots of old zippers to use this idea for! Thank you so much, Kelly! (You are so brave to do all this on your wool mat. I would probably get the glue on the mat!😁)

Such a great find ! ! I so agree, NEVER trust any red, especially antique fabric. Ask me how I know ! !

I use glue, it’s like second nature to me know. Especially on small piecing.

Yes so pretty

Get the lift!♥️

Thinking of adding a Lift…love my lauraStar 1980

What about if the wind comes up? All the work laying those out and then whoosh!

Where can I find the accent fabric?

They are beautiful 😍

Fabulous!

Great tip!

Wow! I love this ironing system. I work with vintage linens, and you are so right about the difficulty of ironing out all of those small wrinkles around embroidery. This is amazing. Thank you for sharing with all of us. Oh, and I just found you today on FB; I went to Utube and immediately subscribed to your site. I can't wait to see your vids. Many, many thanks in advance for making your videos, from one vintage nut to another, Lindsay, "Hot4art" - Vintage linens restorations/creations and Quilt Designs, Sacramento, California. I worked with a dear friend, Janet, and owner of (7 Sisters Fine Vintage Linens - business is on hold for a while as she moved to the other end of the State. We both are re-evaluating business opportunities)...but we both are crazy/fun Vintage Linen Seekers! ❤

Buying so,instance and a steamer pronto! I’ve been longarm quilting for a couple,of years and from time to time e get aui;ts with a little fullness. Nothing too bad yet, but it’s just a matter of time. I have been misting with water but I think these extra steps will be so helpful.

Thanks so much Kelly! When you rinse and then reseal do you make up a new solution with the Retro Clean or rinse and re rinse in hot water? Thank you!!!

great tips..perhaps you should mount the camera on the longarm, so it is visible, what you are doing

I love mine...

Love my Laurastar! I call her the dragon lady!

YOU are so sweet and funny...love your videos....

I love my LauraStar!

Thank you just listened. This is great

You are so funny!!!!

Ok to use the white color of glue?

These are soooo amazing!

I love, love, love my Laurastar systems - I have two - one with suction/blow and an older one without. It is so amazing and worth every penny! I’m primarily a garment sewer and am an iron junkie. I have gravity feed and have two boilers but the Laurastar is the best!

Thank you.❤

Thank you for your help ! I have been ask to bind a very old quilt for my friend, it has high scalloped covers and deep valie’s

Thank you for this helpful tip.

Great tip about the starch and steam thank you

You're tips are fabulous. Thank you

Very helpful. Thank you. Also…love that green Featherweight machine!
