What a darling baby! I made two applique quilts last year, and was not pleased with either of them. I padded the bunnies, and made cotton fluffy tails on one, but I felt they really looked too primitive, from my lack of skill. It was so much work, and not at all satisfying. So I have at least for the moment given up on applique. But great good luck to you. I'm probably the only person who has totally sworn off. Would love to hear your results!
