Is someplace you can hand stitch some appliqués for a reversible quilt?
I was thinking about 'hemming' the folds down after I'm finished, but I didn't know if that would make it worse or not. This is a challenge quilt that required all solid fabrics. The darned thing has to go into our local show next year. I was going to give it away after that, but I don't think I could with the back looking so bad.
