Laura Heine Harmonious raw-edge applique kit?

I just got a kit to make Laura Heine's raw edge applique quilt for my DIL for Christmas....
Have any of you made one? And what do you think of the raw edge technique?

I haven't made that particular one, but, raw edge is the only kind I do. Depending on the style, I will blanket stitch or satin stitch around it. If I want a frayed look, I will do just a straight stitch about 1/8" from the edge. In my avatar, I used both satin stitch and straight stitch for the applique. Your kit looks great and the fabric is fabulous.

She had hers quilted before adding the applique flowers, then the flowers were quilted too, later. It was a beautiful quilt! Hope mine turns out half as good...
