I think this is easier than needle turn and hold up better than raw edge.

Hi, Huntsville. Glad to have you on the board. I'm in Birmingham, AL. I prefer fusible/steam a seam fusing, then needle turn with hand applique blanket stitch. Don't get to quilt as often as I like, but am working on the hand quilting of a French Braid, some bird squares with batik border framing, and have strips cut for my 6 yo GD to start her first quilt on her next visit. Also, my church is Chapter 313 of Prayers & Squares International. Although a small group, we do lap quilts and prayer squares for ill congregation members, etc. It's all about the prayers, nothing special in the quilts.
