    I just quilt around the design. On this one I outlined the border stripes, the angel (and all of her parts), the hills and the little barn thing. The rest are all buttoned on pieces. If I had to wash it I would quilt more in the inner areas but only as much as necessary, but the buttons are sewn through so they would probably prevent any shifting anyway.

    when i made my granddaugter a disney princess quilt on the dresses i quilted straight (well-kind of straight) lines down from the waste band to the hem- making it look like lines of the dress skirt- i went around the waste band- you can enhance/embellish without adding sew on things that come off- you embellish with thread- enhance the design with out taking away from it.
