My favorite is let someone else do it. Lol!
I've done fusible with paint pen edging - which ends up cracking after a few washings (on sweatshirts).
I've done it also on baby bibs with satin stitch edging which I liked better, but no longer have the zigzag machine (passed on to someone who didn't have a machine).
Tried needle turn for the hot air balloon block swap and felt like mine was close to a disaster - apologies to those of you who got one of my blocks!
So for now anyway, I'm leaving it to the rest of you.
