I am a longarm quilter and I once quilted a "quilt" whereby the lady bought a bed sheet and cut up pieces of fabric into leaf shapes and circles and I don't even remember what, and GLUED them to the sheet with Aileens glue. The thing could walk by itself. I then added batting and backing to this and quilted it. It actually turned out well and my machine went through it like a knife through hot butter...sew...never fear...just keep on keeping on!
