    Thanks for this link. I had not heard of this before, but really like this technique and glad to hear that others have used it and liked the results.

    Thanks for sharing this video. Great idea and I'm just finishing a lap robe and I'm going to give this a try.

    Babies are constantly working to coordinate their fingers and will pick at yarn, ribbon, whatever, simply because it's there. If a piece of the "tie" is detached, it goes into the mouth. Your instincts match mine!

    I have machine tacked because it is quick, affective and VERY hard to 'pick' out.

    I like this and it would still give the look of a hand-tied quilt . Thanks for sharing.
