Applique onesie tutorial~
Appliqued onesies are the perfect baby gift! They are pretty cute, super useful during the first few months and my favorite part is that they can be personalized. This is a fun activity for a baby shower, too. I love onesies.
I made these two for some friends from Arizona who are expecting baby Wyatt. I guess you could have guessed those two facts by the appliques I chose!

***Warning*** This process may become an addiction. It's so fun, really satisfying, and can be just so dang cute/funny/perfect for your little babe or friend's babe. But how many onesies does a new baby really need? 10? 20? The world may never know. You've been warned.
Print out or draw shapes, outlines, silhouettes and/or letters that you want to applique on your onesie. Make sure they are the right size for the size onesie that you are making.
Iron it onto the onesie.
And you're done! Okay baby Wyatt. It's time to be born. I hope they really do name you Wyatt ;).
So what are you going to applique on your onesies? A silhouette of a poet? A car? An iphone? Twitter symbol?http://seekatesew.blogspot.com/2011/10/applique-onesie-tutorial.html

Materials:
-Heat N Bond (purple)
-fabric scraps
-shapes or letters, printed or drawn
Print out or draw shapes, outlines, silhouettes and/or letters that you want to applique on your onesie. Make sure they are the right size for the size onesie that you are making.
Cut out your first shape and cut out a piece of heat n bond large enough to cover it.
Iron the heat n bond to a scrap of fabric.
Let it cool and peel off the paper backing. You can see where the adhesive is below, it's a little darker.
Pin on your shape and cut it out.Iron it onto the onesie.
Stitch around the shape. Make sure you're only going through the top layer of your onesie! Topstitching will give it some extra definition and stability.
I sewed a tiny star made of tshirt knit over my friends' hometown. If you're doing a state onesie, you can also put a little heart. (This is for a boy, so I chose star.)
I added my clothing label on the inside. A special little touch! And you're done! Okay baby Wyatt. It's time to be born. I hope they really do name you Wyatt ;).
