I'm very new to this Applique business, Which book should I use Basics of Applique or Paper Piecing Basics. I can download them. Also I have a Baby Lock machine. I can't find the Blanket Stitch in my book. Does anyone know what I can use.

Look for the blind hem stitch. What you want is about 3 straight stitches in a row and then a "bite" (single zigzag stitch). On my machine, I mirror-image this stitch so it is taking a bite to the left rather than to the right.

Hi Barbara...I'm glad you like my pattern for "A Cat For All Season" and you're doing a great job with it. I only want to say that it's against Federal Copyright Law/the Copyright on the pattern to share the pattern, including by swapping or selling, with anyone. The pattern is for your personal use, only, if you purchased it from me, C&T Publishing, or at a retailer.
This is how designers, like myself, make their living and it's not fair for people to be possibly diminishing the sales of our work by giving it away to others.
I hope you'll consider this and refrain from the practice.
Thanks a lot,
Patrick Lose

Yes, Patrick, I can see your point. I would never have considered copying or posting the pattern, but I can see how a swap is no better. Thank you for pointing this out, and I will refrain from the practice in the future. My only reason for offering in the first place is that I was unsure whether the pattern was even available any more. I've had my copy for quite a while. In any event, your point is well taken and I will keep it in mind in the future.
I love your design, by the way. As a cat lover, it was irresistable when I saw it the first time. Also, it's well written. Even a beginner like me could easily follow it and complete it with relatively good results.
