    So my DH and I meet at TRF and when we have gone back we purchase scraps of leather. Since I just this month picked up quilting he suggested making a quilt with the scraps. Has anyone used leather in quilting?

    I acquired a few leather ties back in the summer and didn't know what to do with them. Hope you get a few suggestions. If not, you might want to put this question in the Main section.

    Not to sure about trying applique. Unless I hand stiched it down then maybe. However thanks for the suggestion.

    Welcome from Idaho!
    I think it would depend on the thickness of your leather...
