Well, I just practiced a little with this idea...it's really kinda' cute! i like it..I will 'play' a little more with it. It reminds me of 'todays' version! of tying...I did a sampler for each of my children, a picture of their home & then their family (including pets) in stick people form. 'My version' of 'todays version' of a sampler!

But if you do tie, you can cut the ties very close or even make a french knot. I don't think that would distract from the applique.
