edited to add that I used my handy dandy friend: Google! This is an interesting technique. I've only recently gotten into applique again and have been experimenting with different methods. Thanks!
It's a bit difficult to explain IMA as it important to know how to set your machine, stitch length. tension etc. you really need the book so if you don't want to buy it could you loan it from a friend or library? I can't even show you a close up of the stitch as it is so fine, nigh on invisible it wouldn't photograph.
Yes it was Paper Pieced and for those know how to do here is a handy link.

I love doing it some people don't, it's all about choice and PP allows you to do finer picture type blocks.
