Memories to Heirlooms

Remember When. . . I did a hare repair?

12/6/2018

About five years ago I was commissioned to make a Hareloom for Maddie, the granddaughter of a good friend.  Made from pieces of Maddie's childhood and high school activities, this Hareloom attended all four years of college as support.  Recently Maddie's Hareloom had run into a snare and was returned to me in hopes I could repair the wear of the hare!  Did I dare?  When I heard the hare was in need of repair I was concerned that my work was only fair and could not stand up to a college lair.  Soon I saw my sewing was fine; it was the well-loved fabric in need of care, with a shoulder separation and possible total hip replacement!  I sprang into action and removed all the stitching, reinforcing each piece with surgical precision.  The hare fared well through it all and is now quite "hoppy" again!

This was great learning experience, teaching me to reinforce weakened fabrics before assembling an Hareloom, Bearloom or Heirloom!
