I think it would be okay for needle turn or finished edges. I don't think it would be good for raw edge appliqué as the fusible helps keeps the edges from fraying when washed. I have used the glue to hold my pieces in place until I stitched them down. I did find when using the glue for appliqué that a little bit of glue and heat drying with the iron works really well. A lot do glue tends to go through all layers. But it does wash out with no problems.
i can't wait till I get a top done so I can glue baste, this sounds like fun. And a lot easier to work with than spray basting.
