You will find it with the iron on patches at your local shop, JoAnn's should have it. I got mine at the Hancocks that went out of business. I can't say what brand I bought, as it's just in a ziplock bag in my sewing box now, label gone.Quote:

Thank you. I am definitely going to try this and see how it looks. If it looks bad, then I will go the route of making a separate binding. I really appreciate your help.
Nothing to it! there is a tut for that! that's what I would do as well....trim the whole thing and sew on a binding.
Not exactly sure what you are describing, but an iron on interfacing works great. Just a small piece little larger than the cut and iron it on. I do this often...admittedly! Things happen!
Thanks so much. I just happen to have a piece of interfacing that I can try. If it doesn't work then I will cut the material off and make a separate binding. Just so you know what I was trying to describe...I made the backing larger than the actual top so that I could fold the material over and make a binding; rather than making and sewing on a separate binding. (Hopefully this makes sense.) Thanks again!
How about covering the place with your label after the iron on tape mends it.
I have put a label in a odd place for this reason before and it worked just fine.
I hope you can fix it. I've used the fold over technique on little stuff like pot holders but I imagine it is trickier on a bigger quilt sized project.
Make sure and get some pictures to post as well. Making a memory quilt is a very sweet thing to do.
