Someone suggested Bottom Line for applique, I tried it, and it works beautifully for applique - it sinks right into the fabric and becomes invisible, just like the silk. So then I purchased one of those assorted donuts full of different colored bobbins, which is great, because now I have 118 yards each of 46 different colors. You know how much that would have cost if I had purchased silk?
