i am a long armer who loves minkie backs- but it does take practice- and i used the one with dimples once--it was ok but some people might not like the way the stitches look on it- you should prehaps make a small pinwheel block- with batting (if you are using batting) and some of your dimple minkie and do a practice block so you can see exactly how the stitching looks on the minkie before you attack the whole quilt-
some people love the look- others hate it...decide before taking a chance-
