Thank you! Do you know we have lots of free Christmas appliqué designs? See them here: tulipsq.com/seasonal 🌷

[@gwenbell1390]

Thank you for this tutorial on raw edge appliqué. I have one question…in the video you said you were using the button hole stitch but it looks like the blanket stitch my grandmother used on her appliqué. My button hole stitch on my machine looks like a traditional zigzag, just done in place and doesn’t advance. Is the old blanket stitch now called the button stitch on newer machines?

[@TulipSquare]

I checked with Paulette, and she misspoke in the video. That is indeed a blanket stitch she's using. Good catch! 😊🌷

[@roxannesears7878]

Question.. I saw you on Facebook recommending rotary blades and in that video you were using the Alto quilt cut2. I am considering purchasing it and would like to know your thoughts. Would you recommend it? I've never seen you use it in any of the KZbin videos I've watched on your channel.

[@TulipSquare]

You haven’t seen us use them in videos because we usually cut everything ahead of time. We have two of the Quilt Cut systems and we absolutely love them! Can’t imagine cutting without it anymore. Highly recommended. We’ve had them for years. They’re fantastic! If anyone else is wondering, you can get the whole system on Amazon: amzn.to/3BTQNC8

[@roxannesears7878]

Thank you for your quick reply! Btw, I enjoy your videos!

[@TulipSquare]

Thanks! I'm just going to add a link to my comment, so others can find it as well. 🌷

[@ma555680]

What kind of backing are you using

[@TulipSquare]

We used HeatnBond Lite, you can find it on Amazon here: amzn.to/3HW5Wqd 🌷

[@auntdee9678]

Don’t we need some tissue or tear away stabilizer on the back before appliquéing stitch?

[@TulipSquare]

I have never used anything other than the fusible interfacing. 🌷

[@auntdee9678]

And where do I find your other free appliqués? Thank you so much.

[@TulipSquare]

Here you go: 😊🌷 tulipsq.com/applique

[@auntdee9678]

@@TulipSquare thank you!

[@eileenmeyers6080]

Sorry but you said it was a buttonhole stitch but that is a blanket stitch 😊

[@eileenmeyers6080]

And instead of that top of his hat I think I'll make a round one to make it easier to stitch down. I want to make one for my best friend because she loves gnomes. She has bone cancer so I'm trying to make as many things as I can to cheer her up. I may make these into a table runner. 😊

[@TulipSquare]

Some machines call it buttonhole, others call it blanket stitch. The main difference is when it's done by hand. 🌷

[@auntdee9678]

I don’t need to use a stabilizer when appliquéing? I am new this.
