Would you be willing to post any pics of your 3 hexi quilts? I was thinking that I would need to use invisible thread (never used it in the bobbin but another adventure--right) and do the zig zag stitch bc I am using so many different Christmas fabrics. So it sounds if I do this, then I wouldn't need to do any other quilting to secure the batting.
