And I'm not sure I would have trusted it either if I hadn't had to wash a small quilt I'd been using as a topper over a chest that had gotten wet from a planter seeping on it and causing some of the fabric to bleed. The bleeding came out and the applique stayed put. I agree with the others, do a bit a stitching along the edge.The Idaho Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979439849662755082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588118538433483895.post-2224229856106191822020-09-16T18:46:43.569-04:002020-09-16T18:46:43.569-04:00delightful read today...... ready for something n...delightful read today...... ready for something new in the world ......Susie Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05893377527974815997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588118538433483895.post-10804104630719367542020-09-16T16:02:10.995-04:002020-09-16T16:02:10.995-04:00The West Wing is a great show to watch to see how ...The West Wing is a great show to watch to see how things should be done. All your quilts are beautiful - the parts we can see. You should have told Elizabh's parents that they were spelling her name wrong. Or maybe it is a nick name! I agree with Shannon - I would sew over the edges of the applique just to be safe, especially since a baby quilt is likely to get washed a lot.Shelina (formerly known as Shasta)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03290945204269323129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588118538433483895.post-15298126574550635392020-09-16T09:45:38.688-04:002020-09-16T09:45:38.688-04:00I love all the bright colors and prints, and I com...I love all the bright colors and prints, and I completely sympathize about the name- I was quilting book titles onto a miniquilt the other day and but Charlotte's Web onto the Borrowers and wound up having the rip it out. The stitches were tiny, but luckily I'd only done one go over so it wasn't as bad as your H. It's so frustrating though! I love the mini applique for covering the spot, but my inclination for a quilt likely to be washed would probably be to stitch the edges just for safety.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12464425603323257233noreply@blogger.com
