Will this be a quilt you are using or a wall hanging or the center section of a quilt used just for looks where flexibility is not necessay? If the flexibility is not necessary, then you can get outstanding results in depth perception, detail, even fur or hair detail using a glue stick and absolutely layer upon layer of tiny, tiny strips (1/16x1/2) of fabric. The depth of the fabric is necessary for the illusion of even more depth perception, and using the tiniest strips of fabric with the glue and twizzers will give detail that is more often found in paintings. It is time consuming and very satisfactoring, but will be fairly rigid when you are finished. You need all the other steps of confetti quilting, but the detail comes in the tiny, miniscular size of the fabric and the depth comes from the layers.
