"Appliqué is a versatile art form that can be used on quilting projects, for garment decoration, for decorative home accessories and for many other items. Basically, appliqué is a technique of layering one fabric over another to create a colorful design. When done by machine, the design is finished using zigzag or satin stitches of various widths to secure fabric pieces to the desired location" - College of Agriculture and Home Economics New Mexico State University

I personally love to applique on quilt blocks or purses..etc..
I use dryer sheets or non-woven fusible web and do It the Eleanor Burns way. It's very easy and once quilted you can't tell the difference. I use a straight stitch sometimes. But satin stitch is very pretty too.
If your machine offers different decorative stitches you can make a real heirloom quilt to be passed down through the family.
