I love to applique myself! It gives me great pleasure! right now I'm appliquing the 12 days of Christmas. I've gotton the templetes all cut out and now I will start on cutting out the fabric. I have never hand appliqued? I always machine but would like to try something by hand just haven't tried yet. Here is a pic of one of my very 1st applique.

That's lovely! I especially like the irises - so pretty!
I've never done any machine applique.
I won't rule it out, because it wasn't that long ago that I swore I'd never do applique at all - and promptly fell in love with it!

Does anyone do machine embroidery on top of their applique? Not as the way to affix it, but as decoration? I've ordered a book about it, only it hasn't arrived yer. I have a piece of applique that I want to embroider before I attach it, only I can't come up with any ideas for the embroidery. It is a 10" fleur de lis. Has someone done something similar?

I love to machine applique. I'm still working on the other techniques. I like the starch method but I need a lot of practice making the edges smooth.
Here's a picture of one of my raw edge applique quilts.
