As far as blankets go, this one has been going for a long time. About twenty six years.
The binding on it is showing wear and tear, it needs to be replaced. In this case, another binding will be sewn over the old one, just like our ancestors did with patching and fixing parts of quilts that needed to be fixed.
If you have ever sewn with minky fabric, the edges are tricky. The same with this much loved blanket. It needs to be repaired before it can be washed again.
Some parts is in much better shape than the rest.
Leftover binding from a wedding quilt for our eldest son and wife. It is perfect and just enough for this blanket.
