I accidentally cut a thread on one of the baffles on my RevX a year or so ago. I put some tape on it to keep it from working loose in the field but I need to make a more permanent fix. Do you think that applying a bit of SeamGrip to the first couple of stitches on each side of the cut would work? The tape seems to have held things in place well enough for a few trips. The thread is on the interior side of the quilt.
Hey Stephen. I think Tyler already got back to you from EE, but for anyone else who comes across this and is wondering, the seam grip (and/or good tape like tenacious tape) will do a pretty good job at holding it in place, but just be sure to fix down at least several stitches in each direction, as any pressure from pulling on the baffle under that fabric will tend to work the stitches out over time, so locking down extra stitches can stop or slow that down. Any other fix requires going inside the quilt, which is pretty messy once it has down in it.

Thank you Peter (and Tyler) for responding. I will give it a go with the Seam Grip.
