Ekuw....so glad to get someone's first hand knowledge on this technique. I have a quilt top with a lot of applique I have not quilted yet so I will be trying this out on this quilt. I know it's probably a bit more time consuming but it may be worth it in the long run. I don't mind spending more time for less frustration.
NZ & Cashsmom... I will look into the class and book. Thanks so much for info...
