Unless quilting around large areas of applique would help stabilize the quilt first. Make sure the quilt doesn't shift its layers as you go. I doubt that berries alone would be worth doing individually. I know several folks who are very adept at working the background fill around applique so it looks like it's been completely SID'd but it actually isn't done completely. That saves time, but I like it to be done all the way around (especially if you can tell on the back) so I usually do my fill until I hit the applique then I go completely around, and then fill around.

I have a quilt with a lot of berries, would you stitch in the ditch around each one separately first or would you do this as you are doing the free motion work around the applique in general?<br />Hope you don't mind the question thanks in advance.Pine Valley Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11284143590440601232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445986501162780215.post-48549208668562698102014-10-23T14:56:49.113-04:002014-10-23T14:56:49.113-04:00Amy, did your job.

I read EVERY post and am learning so much from you! I am not a beginner but these beginner lessons have been like a refresher course for me and I get something new from every lesson. I am not very computer savvy and am not blogging right now (though It's have in the past --- maybe again) but I look forward to your postings and look for them over breakfast every morning.
