Appliques

I was wondering about, when do you blanket stitch around the applique? Do you sandwich the project first and then sew the blanket stitch or not to sandwich the project?

Also it is 2 degrees and I'm shivering, LOL

I am still pretty new to applique, but I do the blanket stitch before I sandwich it.

And it's -20 F here with a wind chill of -46F. Layers and layers and lots of quilts.

The applique is part of the quilt top. You normally wouldn't want the blanket stitches to show on the back of your quilt.

Blanket stitch first.

That's what I started to do and then I stopped to write to all you wonderful, brilliant friends to make sure I was right.
Thank you so much, I knew I could count on you guys.
