Adding appliqué to finished quilt?
Hi! I’m mostly a lurker, but I’ve got a bit of a dilemma/question.
An old church friend has asked me to make a banner for her church, ~30”x40”. I have the main quilt design figured out, and I’m going to quilt it in the QAYG method because of the layout. She wants to have the church’s name appliquéd on, as well as a cross (big, since this is a banner), but I REALLY don’t want to do it. I just don’t have the time. Is it reasonable to do the whole quilt/background, bind it, etc and have her find someone else to do the lettering on top? Would it be difficult to do that on a finished quilt? And has anyone ever put felt letters on, instead of fabric? Or could I do a heavy duty iron heat n bond to add cotton letters so I don’t have to stitch around? This doesn’t have to be washable, as it will be used as a wall hanging and for events.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
