Default New to Quilting - Applique question

Hi all! I’ve never quilted before, and my hubby bought me a little quilt kit with Applique turtles on them. I watched the whole series of quilting tutorials by Quilt Addicts Anonymous, and it had been super helpful. My question is on the Applique part, it’s a fusible Applique with edge stitching. The pattern says to stitch the Applique through the batting, didn’t say anything about backing. But everywhere I read says the stitch happens on the top only, after the Applique had been fused. So I’m not sure what to do now. Is it super weird to stitch through batting only? I’m planning on doing hand blanket stitches for the edging, would love some input on whether I should just stitch the top only, or stitch through the batting? Thanks!
