What is another name for the selvage on woven fabric?
The "selvage" is the lengthwise finished edges of a woven fabric. One of the selvages is frequently white, with the name of the fabric, designer, and manufacturer stamped onto it. The opposite selvage is also a woven edge but includes the fabric design. These edges should be removed and not included in piecing as they are woven more tightly and shrink differently than the rest of the fabric. The width of the fabric between the selvage edges is usually 44" or 54", depending on the fabric manufacturer.
One popular trend in quilting is to cut the printed selvage edge from the length of the fabric and use it in "string" block patterns, creating colorful patterns that include the text and color test dots from the printed selvage edges

What yarns do you use in applique?
There are different types of applique.
One type of applique involves sewing a small shape of fabric, such as a flower, onto another piece of fabric. Some quilts are made this way, and applique is also sometimes used on garments. In this case, you do not use "yarn", but thread. You may applique (sew) the piece on by hand, or by machine. In some cases, people use embroidery floss and sew a button-hole stitch or other decorative stitch around the applique.
In some cases, you might consider certain types of crocheted decorations to be applique. An example of this might be when you crochet an animal-shape and then attach it to a crocheted baby afghan. In this case, you would probably use the same yarn with which you crocheted the animal or other shape.
I hope this helps you.
