first time appliquer
I have only pieced quilts in the past, but after piecing a scrap quilt went on my own and added an applique border to the scrap quilt. I did not want to hand applique because I was ready to start a new project, and so went ahead and used a fusible product that I found in town "Heat and Bond" - but the only type they had was the ultra, and since a sewing/craft store is over 3 hours away from me, I bought what I found in town here. It looks great, but is too hard to hand embroider a blanket stitch around and not even sure if I can stitch it on my machine. Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions on what I should do at this point? Can I just leave it without stitching around the edges if I make sure to just use as a decorative quilt? Thanks for any suggestions -
