not all fuse is the same ....for t shirt quilts i use the heat and bond in purple package ...easier to sew through .....for stuff i want to stay put i use the one in the red package ........for applique i use the sew something really thin on the back all the way around then slit and turn then all the edges are secure and you can 'topstitch or blanket stitch whatever '' and if you sew it to the really thin fuse interfacing you can heat set it in the right place
