If my applique needs enhancing or details, I will quilt in the applique. Otherwise, I quilt around it. If I want to quilt a panto on an appliqued quilt, I will make adjustments and still quilt around the applique. In other words, I never quilt OVER an applique. I might quilt IN the applique as mentioned above. Sorry if I'm confusing you. I know what I'm trying to say, it just doesn't always come out right.
