I LOVE the home-made look of the blanket stitch. It will ALWAYS look more consistent than any satin stitch or zigzag. That would be the teal blue and lime green pieces
this was my first thought, also

Blanket stitch!
Blanket stitch for sure, and I personally like the contrast of the black.....
Yes that is a real picture of my hometown Temecula, California. We feature premiere Wineries, World Class Golf Courses, Pechanga Indian Casino and Hot Air Balloons
the turquoise one was my favorite! but, i am a doofus, so . . . . keep that in mind! ;0)
It looks like the lime green is taking a deeper bite of the fabric in the pictures. If that is really the case, I would use that one on larger pieces of applique and the teal stitch on small pieces of applique.
Blanket stitch gets my vote.
I did some machine applique taught by a prize winning quilter and she suggested using the blanket stitch. I agree with the other ladies that the teal and the lime look the best.
Another Blanket Stitch vote !

go out of the box for a few and try some of the other stitches offered on your machine, like the feather stitch for example
Blanket stitch too.
