I like having all the options that gives me. Here is my first block. I used Cherrywood fabrics instead of batiks - a lot more subtle coloration, but I'm happy with it.

So, e, are you doing machine applique or needle turn?
I am doing machine applique. Some (flowers and leaves) are fused first and some (stems, berries, flower centers) are turned under before appliqueing using 100 wt silk in a close color with a blind hem stitch. Doing needle turn would mean "hand" work and I try hard not to use 4 letter words - LOL!
