In raw edge applique the appliqued pieces do not have the edges turned under.
They are usually applied with fusible web and the sewn around the edges,
You can do a multi-stitch free-motion zig-zaggy motion over the edges, satin-stitch,
or a straight stitch 1/8-1/4" inside the raw edge to encourage frayed edges
(like on my leaves)
You can do a blanket stitch with your machine bnut on the Christmas piece I did mine by hand.
