So, here is my concept -- I think I'm going to applique it on after quilting so it sets apart better. And I'm definately going to need to scale it again, and rearrange hexes when I finish sewing together the other 72 hexes . :shock:
I don't think I'm going to batt the bowtie since I don't want to quilt the inside of it - unless I can find a batting with a really wide quilting distance and catch it in a zig-zag when appliqueing? Or what about quilting batting to a piece of muslin then making a little pillow out of the bowtie before attaching it?
