    Adding stones to quilts and tote bags. What type of a tool do you use for this?

    Okay, so I am not a blingy girl, but I didn't know why anyone would want to add rocks to their backs. There had to be better things to use to make them heavier.

    Sorry on drugs. :(

    Are you talking like the hot fix crystals or actual rocks

    I've used Aileen's Jewel It to encase actual small polished rocks. Glue them on and put a thin layer of glue over them.
