Thank you for all the kind words. I always appreciate the replies I receive. I mostly do a satin stitch on the appliqué , using an embroidery thread in a colour as near to the fabric as I can. I make the width of the satin stitch as narrow as I can. Batiks are best for that as there is less fraying.I've taken two close ups for you. Hope this helps.
