    I agree....that way you won't have to worry about anything getting through the holes.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I wanted to maintain the 'white' of the eyelet so I used a lightweight interfacing. Once I get this quilted I'll post a pic.

    Depending on the eyelet, you could weave ribbon thru the eyelet, if it is the kind that is on the edge.

    Here's the finished quilt. I used a lightweight interfacing behind the eyelet and got the look I wanted and now I'm not worried about the batting being able to work its way out.[ATTACH=CONFIG]337965[/ATTACH]
