you know it does not matter what method you use for your applique, it is all still applique,so if you've done fusable and foundation applique you are good, some people really don't like hand work so never try needle turn applique (where you make freezer paper templates) so it is nothing to be intimidated about :) if you like hand work jump in and give needle turn a try, if you prefer machine applique then trace your patterns without adding the turn under allowance and use fuseable or foundation, it does not mean you are not an appliquer :)
