When I do raw edge applique I have several methods.
1. Expect it to ravel and make that part of the design. No adhesive. Then I stitch it down with straight stitch 3/8 inch inside.
2. Straight stitch it down, at least 1/8 inch inside, then do decorative stitching 6mm wide (usually reverse blanket stitch) to make sure it doesn't ravel. May or may not use adhesive.
