Bernice,
I do the slip stitch to put pieces together.  If you use a hdc, you will
have a nice stitch but you will also have a very well defined ridge.  Either
will work.  The one you use depends on if you want an almost invisible joint
or a very well defined ridge.

Congradulations on getting them all completed!!
Doing a big Snoopy Dance just for you!
Hahahahaha!
