I agree LavenderBlue, that said I love hand applique too and haven't tried hand stitching using this method, maybe I will have a go sometime and let you all know if it works! :)

Thanks for all your lovely compliments, I love to share! :D

Thanks for the Tut.

This method works very well to with hand stitching but for a kids quilt or a quilt that is washed often the
machine stitch is more durable.

Great tutorial. Thanks. This is how I do my applique but have always had trouble with getting those pesky little places like you did on the circle but your technique of the little ripples should do the trick.

Thanks Mimi, it's frustrating when you get the little points but this way it's easy to correct with out distorting the fabric, glad you like the tute! :)

Great! Thank you so much. Love your system. Easy to understand and do.
