CarrieAnn,do you know how to do a hem on a dress? all the neddle turn stitch is that it is smaller but the principle is the same for the stitch not to show on top. cut out the piece you want to app leaving small amt to turn under. Now you can use a glue stick and paste it under or baste either one. place it on the fab u want to put it on. U can also do a buttonhole stitch. The old fashioned way is to use all black emb floss but u can match your fab that u are appliqueing down. Does this make sense?
