How to do a zig zag stitch for raw edge applique! Easy and beginner friendly.

Welcome to Pattern Poole TV! The zig-zag stitch is an essential stitch used to secure the applique pieces onto fabric when doing fusible raw edge applique. We use it a lot in our applique quilt as you go quilts and in this tutorial, we will show you how easy it is! If you have been following along in our applique series, you would have watched our first video on how to do raw edge applique and our second video on 3 types of machine stitches for raw edge applique, and today we are going to show you how to use a basic zig-zag stitch in more detail for your raw edge applique.
