I have done machine applique with fusible web in the past, but I have only used a satin stitch. I want to try a buttonhole stitch. Is the line of stitching on the edge of the applique or next to it? If the color of the thread matches the flower or leaf, then I think it would easier be to sew just on the very edge. I have no idea how to do this, so here I am asking for help. thank you. J

So it's needle on the cream background very close to the applique. Okay. I made a sample a few days ago. That's when I decided the satin stitch was putting down too much thread and changed the look of my flowers. I've tried the buttonhole stitch on two machines and I like the look better. Thank you for your responses.
