Hi kitsykeel, there are no dumb question in quilting god knows i had many and still have them it is easier to applique before the sandwitching 
quilt as you go give you that option like i did mine I sandwitched the 3 layers and applique it is a little thicker if you were to do it by hand but much easier on the machine I didn't do any quilting because the triple stitch and so much applique is enough to hold the layers together. Do I make sense? Sound like i am rambling. Maybe some of the ladies can explain better than me about the technique. Thank you for looking.

Do you come to Canberra for the craft and Quilt fair in August? Maybe we could meet up then.Yes the weather is getting chilly here lol, it's going to be a very long winter again since we didn't get much of a summer for the second year in a row.
