Choosing batting for Hand Applique quilts
#3
I plan to hand quilt it, if the batting lends itself to it, otherwise will be sent off to LAQ.
The blocks are all finished, half redwork the other half applique... still working on the over-all layout.

even if the batting says you can quilt 10" apart that makes the blocks saggy. I would outline the applique shapes and use matching or clear thread and go into them to do those shapes, like her arm and apron. the redwork if you outline real close to the stitching it should hold it good and you can echo or meander out to the edges

I am wanting to use wool if at all possible, but it calls for quilting 2 inches apart. If you have an area you weren't really wanting to quilt into, but it's larger than 2" square, how do you handle that? Would that make you look at different batting altogether?
