Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Can anyone suggest a book about raw-edge applique. I'm really interested in doing this and would like a book that would do a good job at explaining the process. Thanks for any help.
I am a fan of raw edge appliqué. I just went to Youtube and watched a bunch of videos. They are step by step and I can watch and pause as I am following the directions.
Here's a blog with good instructions, sorry I don't have a book name for you. http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/2010/04/...-free-pattern/
Here's a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1OahzmtM50
Here's another tutorial http://www.connectingthreads.com/tut...Prep__D47.html
And another blog http://www.sewwequilt.com/2010/10/ha...-applique.html

This is a great book. See if your library can get it on interlibrary loan so you can 'test drive' it before you buy.
