I originally had this posted to my plush DA account, but I realized this might be of use to you all as well! I've shown this technique here on plush, but it can also be used for things like pawpads on fursuits. It's how I got this pair of paws so nice and neat looking: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9213593/
If you have any questions, try the tutorial first and I'd be happy to answer any questions if you still don't "get" it after practicing a little. You do need to be able to sew comfortably on a sewing machine to get this to work.
Hope it helps!

I was always told this was appliquing, I wondered what satin stitching was for the longest time, lmao. Yes, this is a phenomenal stitch for stuff, I use it for fleece all the time. Make sure to doubleback at least an inch when closing your stitch though, it loves to come undone(I do END <-- back at least 6 stitches, --> TO END to close, saves on that annoying unwravelled thread bit
Satin-stitching is a form of appliqué, but not every kind of appliqué is satin-stitching. Some people don't do the zigzag around the edges, for instance.
Yes, backstitch is important. :) I usually don't backtrack quite that far, because it can get kinda bulky, but I always put a drop or two of fray check on it. Works pretty well!
