Default Learning applique

I've been doing traditional piecing for the past few years and think I should progress into applique. I've attended a machine applique class 2 years ago but find it pretty challenging as I can't quite estimate when to stop & turn, what angle to turn etc. The stitches turned out very uneven and ugly! Would hand applique be an easier technique for a beginner?

I'm using the Heat n Bond fusible web. I remembered that my teacher worked with a stablizer underneath the fabric. Is that necessary?

Grateful if anyone could point me to good tutorials online which I could follow as a beginner. Thanks!
