Doesn't the chenille have a cutter that won't cut through the bottom layer? I think it does. Looks like fun and with my scraps I could make 2 or 3 quilts, by just sewing blocks together.

I also think using either a glue stick or basting spray would work really well to keep the pieces in place. I can't wait to try this.
You don't want to cut the back fabric, tho.
