Darlene, there is NO chance of me over quilting it lol!
I have just dug out a Indonesian hand painted Batik in Terracotta, gold and green, which has a very open vine of leaves and flowers, guess I will quilt this from the reverse and echo the pattern all over...tah dah! problem solved, thanks for everyones advice!
I had intended quilting the applique from the front as I don't want to go over it, but great advice...cheers!!
:D :D :D
Just beautiful. Sounds like you've come up with a quilting idea already, but I would quilt the center applique portion from the front. Use a long long stitch and a bright color thread in the bobbin and SID around that block from the front so you can see where it is from the back. After you 've done the quilting from the back, remove the sid and quilt that area from the front.
