How do you secure applique on a well loved quilt
The only applique I've done has been on a wall hanging. I'm quilting a quilt that has applique that others have done and I am not sure if they would survive many washes. They seem to be OK but I wondered if those of you who do a lot of applique if you run a stitch all the way around each piece (say 1/8") to secure it or just treat it as you would the rest of the piecing?
(It is needle turned hand applique)
