This is such a great tutorial. The section where you show how different techniques look on the same applique was so helpful. Seeing how thread choice and stitches look was super helpful. I learned so much more in this 35 minute video than in some much longer videos. I agree with everyone else that has commented, you are a great teacher and the close ups were excellent. Thank you.
Wow, I love this appliqué technique! You are a great teacher; I love that you include so many bits of valuable information during your tutorial, very educational. Thank you!
This is by far the best tutorial I have ever seen, and I have watched a ton of these videos. Thank you so very much for such a detailed step by step explanation of all the different ways to stitch appliqué. You are definitely a phenomenal teacher.
I have to say, THANK YOU! I have never watched a tutorial that was just plain common sense teaching before. You show by doing, show different ways and I just appreciate you so much! I am now doing a blanket loaded with applique and I am having fun doing it!
One of the best instructors! She is so encouraging! I love the options presented. I agree that the close up camera work was extremely helpful especially for a beginner. You explain things very clearly. I have some sight challenges however I believe this is something I can handle. I have been trying to find my niche since having the eye challenges and this sounds great!
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I wish I had known about this before I made the Alphabet Quilt about fonts for my adult son. I do love hand sewing but sadly my t thumbs are now arthritic so this method will work much better for me.
Thank you, Julie, for making my day. As a beginner, I am overjoyed. I stumbled upon your channel when I did, I will definitely be following you in the future along with your past tutorials. I JUST ❤ IT.
A trick to make your turning easier in the inside point of the tail would be to make 1 stitch across before heading out of the tight point. It makes turning easier and lays nice and flat. I learned this in making scallop edges on quilts. I love this method
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have never done any appliqué but find it necessary to save a quilt where I had to do a repair. I feel confident trying this now!
I always seem to be looking for you😊 cause you explain things so well. I think I'm a backwards lefty, but your attitude just seems to help me even more.. I love this new applique... I LOVE doing this stuff!!! And I'm a old softball player! Go figure!! Have a bless day!!👍
I just found your channel and feel like I have hit the jackpot! You are such a wonderful teacher, providing great up close camera work, and multiple ways to complete the project based on our preferences! That is completely what sold me! I always felt like the “Appliqué Club” 😂 had too many rules for me!! I am definitely looking up the Whisper Lite and am sitting here at 5:00am trying to decide what kind of appliqué pattern I want to try first and if there are pattern books, etc! Looking forward to soaking up more of your fun and knowledge! Thanks so much!
Hi Rachel, you are so sweet for those kind words. I am so happy you realize that some rules are meant to be broken…..or at least bent. Happy stitching 😀🧵🪡
That was so nice to watch! I felt like I was learning a lesson from the grandma I wish I had! I'm restoring a wedding pillowcase for my aunt and need to patch the back - I'm going to use this technique. Thank you so much for making this video.
What a complete tutorial for a beginner. Thank you so much, you are an awesome instructor and you work is impeccable. I had to go ahead and buy this product because it definitely have a lot of uses and also because I hope you continue to do this kind of instructional videos. Thank you.
Oh my goodness, I am getting ready to make some Hawaiian styled pillows to go with the quilt I had made my oldest and his family, and was concerned at how I was going to do this. Thank you so much!
I have an older model of Husqvarna Viking sewing machine we bought about 20+ years ago, & I still love it. But I wish I could find a model with more functions.
OH, MY, GOSH!! As a beginner I'm watching tons of videos about sewing and I'm finding myself drawn to applique'. THIS method is so cool!! Thank you so very much for sharing your experience and knowledge. Peekaboo Puss is gorgeous!
Welcome to the wonderful world of quilting 😀 you’ll have fun exploring and trying all the fabulous creative techniques. Have fun and enjoy the process and thank you for your kind words 🤗
Thanks for all the tips. Your whale is a great example with tighter corners, points on the tail and is super cute. I will definitely be trying your product.
I love, love, love this product! I have made a lot of turned edge applique quilts using Whisperlite and it makes the whole process so easy. I've managed to even make a few appliques that have a layer of fluffy batting in them; however, I had NO sharp corners like triangles or narrow sections in my applique pieces when using batting (simple circles to make balloons, flowers with large petals and the like). I can imagine that any pattern with tighter shapes and using batting in them to make them puffy would be impossible to turn. I suppose one could use the opening to stuff bits of puffy polyester batting and then hand stitch that opening closed, but I can imagine that it would be difficult if not impossible to get it down narrow passages.
Hi Bonnie, thank you for your feedback. 😀 I’m so happy that you found my Whisperlite and that you love it for appliqué I would think that your idea of stuffing bits of poly fill into the small spaces might work. Stitch on and have fun
Wonderful, wonderful demonstration. The whisper lite helps to have a sharper, cleaner applique. Thank you for sampling the various stitching techniques as well. Very helpful. You are a skilled and creative artist. ❤
Hope to see more videos from you! This was really helpful! I realized while I was watching that I have something like this Whisper Lite left over from when I used to make clothing. I would use it to trace my patterns. I am going to try this!
Thank you for showing this technique. Looks great! I just happen to be just surfing around watching sewing youtube videos..and had come across your youtube. Wow! So glad I came across this video of yours! Soo much easier then doing turning over- thank you!
Wow!!!!! I’m soooooo happy to have this tutorial pop up. It’s far and away the BEST I have watched….and I have watched a lot of them since I’ve entered the techno tutorial world. Thanks soooo much.
I, too, am so glad I found your channel and video! I was getting ready to applique with fusible, but didn’t want to use all that expensive product. I had no idea this could be done! Thank you so much for sharing.
This video helped me so much. I am new to appliqués and I couldn’t decide on my method but you sold me to your side! Lol just awesome thank you so much
Thank you for your excellent instructions and wonderful close ups. I was looking at different techniques to applique whales onto my baby quilt and yours looks like the best and reversing the design is priceless! I've used freezer paper with starch before and also gluing the edges over but this looks a lot simpler.
I have a set of tweezers for helping to flip little pokey sections like that tail at the end of the tube. You have to go gently on it, but it really helps get bunched up areas started.
this was incredibly helpful for me, a completely beginner. Thank you! I think it looks much nicer than raw edge while still remaining beginner friendly.
Thank you so much for sharing this information/process. I have to do 8 hearts and I had no idea how to do it. I’m very excited to have your video to watch & rewatch. THANK YOU!
Thanks so much for this video tutorial. I never liked the process of needle turn applique, but did like the look of it. I love this method. Many thanks 👍💐
This is awesome! I've thought about doing applique, but the other methods all seemed too fussy for me to want to mess with it. This looks so much easier
I’m so glad I saw this video! I ordered some Whisperlite today and I’m excited to appliqué my Christmas trees onto a quilt top that I’ve been so afraid to attempt. Now I know just what to do! Thank you!
Thanks for such a detailed tutorial. Loved all the options you demonstrated. Especially appreciated the child safety tip about the thread. I always worried about this. Happy I found your channel.
Just received your whisper lite product and it works beautifully. I will be ordering a lot more of it. I researched and watched a thousand videos regarding appliqué and yours is the best way to effortlessly produce a great turned edge appliqué especially for a beginner!!!
Have always loved applique quilt designs, but never dared to tackle large bed projects because of the needle turning labor intensity. This is perfect!! I so want to make an applique quilt for daughter's wedding so I thought I'd see if YT could offer something. I was not liking the fusing methods, then I came across this. Boy did you ever have me confused. Then you cut that little hole and boom! The light went on and my jaw dropped. Thank you for this!
Basting glue is great for holding in place while you sew and washi tape to hold picture & whisperlite while tracing. I have used this method, but not this product. Looks perfect for the job. Thanks for sharing!
Great tutorial! Could you make another video sometime with different shapes for mini quilts? I don’t think I could tire of watching and learning from you.

Love that she showed all the final stitches options at the end! (Also LOVE that wavey background fabric - really pretty!)

Gosh Julie thank you for the kindness 🤗 and I’m so happy that you found my video so helpful- that’s what I was aiming for 😀 stitch on!
Excellent video.
Wow, I love this appliqué technique! You are a great teacher; I love that you include so many bits of valuable information during your tutorial, very educational. Thank you!
Thank you for introducing your technique. It gives me the confidence to try needleturn applique. Thank you again.
This is by far the best tutorial I have ever seen, and I have watched a ton of these videos. Thank you so very much for such a detailed step by step explanation of all the different ways to stitch appliqué. You are definitely a phenomenal teacher.
I agree with everything you have just said, I was only going to repeat word for word thank you ❤
I have to say, THANK YOU!
I have never watched a tutorial that was just plain common sense teaching before.
You show by doing, show different ways and I just appreciate you so much!
I am now doing a blanket loaded with applique and I am having fun doing it!
I’m so happy that you are enjoying your appliqué project! Thank you so much for your kind words. Sharing knowledge is a good thing 😀
You’re a great teacher😊 and the close up camera work is SO helpful to see what you are doing. I’m so glad I found your channel.
Thank you so much Sharon 😀 I’m glad you found the close ups helpful.. Enjoy your stitching.
One of the best instructors! She is so encouraging! I love the options presented. I agree that the close up camera work was extremely helpful especially for a beginner. You explain things very clearly. I have some sight challenges however I believe this is something I can handle. I have been trying to find my niche since having the eye challenges and this sounds great!
I KNEW there had to be an easier way to applique without all that goopy glue or sticky starch! I have placed an order. Thank you so very much.
This would make trapunto easy! Stuff as much as you want then sew it down.
wonderful
Or layer some batting with the pretty fabric!
i JUST ORDERED THE WHISPERLITE IN 1 YARD INCREMENT AND 2 YARD INCREMENTS. THANK YOU FOR THIS.
That teeny-tiny iron made me giggle. It reminds me of when I was a little girl. This project is so cute.
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I wish I had known about this before I made the Alphabet Quilt about fonts for my adult son. I do love hand sewing but sadly my t thumbs are now arthritic so this method will work much better for me.

I don't understand what you mean
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have never done any appliqué but find it necessary to save a quilt where I had to do a repair. I feel confident trying this now!
Thanks Cheryl, I hope this helps you get it completed.

Thanks so much for this video tutorial. I never liked the process of needle turn applique, but did like the look of it. I love this method. Many thanks 👍💐
Thanks Judy turned edge appliqué does have a much nicer look to it vs fusible. Fusible appliqué has its place but it’s just not the same look.
Oh, my gosh! I’m so happy I found your channel. I’m so impressed with your teaching style. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the kind words Judith! I hope it inspires you to stitch often.
This is awesome! I've thought about doing applique, but the other methods all seemed too fussy for me to want to mess with it. This looks so much easier
I just had a great Ah hah moment! Looking forward to using product and technique. You're a genius!
Thanks so much Barbara…. I love aha moments 😀

Hi Paula, I'm so happy that my video and Whisperlite were helpful in you quest of applique!
Thanks for the excellent tutorial. I can no longer sew needle turn appliqué which is my favorite technique. Now I have a great option.

Great instruction ! I've always been intimidated with needle turn. I think I could actually do this. Thanks!
Yes Bonnie- you can do this! 😀
Thank you I have been trying to get my courage up for two months to applique names and wedding date in quilt square from his grandmother.
Basting glue is great for holding in place while you sew and washi tape to hold picture & whisperlite while tracing.
