Thanks for this link. I had not heard of this before, but really like this technique and glad to hear that others have used it and liked the results.

Thanks for sharing this video. Great idea and I'm just finishing a lap robe and I'm going to give this a try.

Babies are constantly working to coordinate their fingers and will pick at yarn, ribbon, whatever, simply because it's there. If a piece of the "tie" is detached, it goes into the mouth. Your instincts match mine!

I have machine tacked because it is quick, affective and VERY hard to 'pick' out.

thank you will try this on next quillow. wish i saw this before I was about done with the one I'm finishing up. It isn't my favorite thing to do so if there is a better way thats good with me for sure.

I have used small bows (ready made ) to tack a quilt with, also there is a systemn called cambridge that has a tissue pattern for tying mch quilting with big heart patterns , bows etc.etc. like a stencil only large size. cmaras

I like this and it would still give the look of a hand-tied quilt . Thanks for sharing.

wow that is very good information that I was not aware off.
