Need help raw edge applique
Hello all
I have a raw edge appliqué project I'm working on. Method used was steam-a-seam Lite 2 .. all fabrics are batiks. When I've done raw edge in the past, I stitched along the edge with monofilament to make the appliqué permanent. I've never worked with light fabrics before though ... never had this problem.
See sample below (a test sample - not my project). See how the needle holes show so prominently on the light fabric? The dark fabrics are fine.
Using Sulky clear monofiliment top and bottom, dropped my needle size down to a Klasse Universal 60/8.
Any other suggestions to stitch down the lighter colored pieces? I don't like those needle holes showing on the piece. Some of my light fabrics are large pieces, some are tiny.
