I'm thinking of using the hot fix rhinestones and getting the little applicator that heats up and applies the rhinestone. Sounds easy enough, which usually means it'll be a nightmare. :)
If it's for display, then why not?! I got one of those hot-fix things to apply crystals to a Christmas project I "tried" doing 2 years ago. I followed the directions EXACTLY and they still fell off before I could get them in a box to wrap. Needless to say the gifts never got completed. I was applying to free standing lace embroideries, so that may have been the problem, but it totally turned me off from the hot-fix crystal thing. Anyhow, I see lots of those highly embellished quilts in shows and they are stunning.
