think to machine applique around the first layers of the shapes, add the second layer, go around that, etc.! Especially when using wool felt where the threads won't show through. :cry: :oops: :oops:

Saves all that starting and stopping! May be able to salvage some of it as I used basting spray to hold the bits down.
