I'm with you 2 many, I love the look of blanket stitch over satin.

I use monofilament thread and sew very close to the edge of add additional security to the fusible, as I have found that over time the fusible always begins to give. I then go back and do the blanket stitch.

I have been doing it this way for years with great results.

I am making a reindeer xmas quilt for my grandson, I hope you can see the invisible thread on the edges of them, better yet I hope you can't see it!

The hearts show the finished blanket stitch
