That's a great tip ... to take a few straight stitches... then blanket and then strait stitches when you get back to the start. Never thought of that. :mrgreen:

it's a month-by-month. they only keep it on for one month. if you miss it, it's gone.

Looks great Pam! The blanket stitch is my favorite for applique. Sometimes the satin stitch is just a bit too much.

LOOKING GREAT!

Pam, I think it looks great!

And, I really enjoyed the video that was posted about how to use the blanket stitch on applique. It was very informative!

Thank you for the web site reference. It is always so helpful when I can view a YOU TUBE video after reading all of your recommendations for any part of quilting.

I watched the Sharon Schamber video again on raw edge applique and she uses liquid stitch around the edge, not the Elmer's School glue. She says it doesn't fray.

I have to go to Home Depot and get the 1 1/4" EMT pipe for my new longarm and Joann's is near there so I'm going to stop and get some. I really don't like the look of the fusible so I'll try a few more methods.

I need a few other supplies anyway (or I'm sure I'll see some that I need :-D )

Not really gone, just not free anymore. Each one is $2.00 after the first of the following month.
