Default Re: Questions about applique

I will tell you exactly what we want to do.
I have a t'shirt and I bought some beautiful woven fabric.
We are cutting out words and shapes from the woven fabric to be put on the tee. we want it to look as if it was sewn on.
The inside of the shirt needs to have a super soft hand as it will be going to high end boutiques and stores.
my sample was made and the back is very scratchy and stiff those making it harsh against the body.
Is tehre any other process i can investigate? I am told i have to do some sort of applique or the edges will fray and the fabric will shift and pull.
Ive been trying to do research for two days...coming up empty handed.
thank you in advance.
