Try Liuxin Newman's book and DVD set, _Perfect Hand Applique_. She answers all of the above questions and more. She has set out a course of lessons that are based on a series of butterflies that start out easy and build skills, until you can applique a dot 1/20th of an inch in diameter.
When you order, be careful--it is published in both English and Japanese. Be sure you are ordering in the language you prefer.
