I thought about doing that but it wouldn't have worked with how I am doing the quilting design. A lot of them are caught by the handquilting but there are some that wouldn't be, so I thought they needed something more to keep them safely sewed down!
Oh gosh, you could definitely be right about the toe-catching! I hope I can do it small enough that it wouldn't be able to catch my toes!
