Applique Onesie

By Curdsnwhey
I needed to make a quick, cute and easy baby gift for a relative, so I decided to do a couple of appliqued onesies.  I love making these because the possibilities are endless and anything looks cute on them.  I decided to do the classic tie because Easter is coming up and it's perfect for a little newbie.  I also did a cute little elephant.  The great thing about these is even if you can't sew you can still make some!!!  Let me show you how...

-Not just a Housewife

Items Needed:
-Onesies or Shirt
-Fabric
-Double Fusible Webbing. (I use Steam a Seam.  If you are going to finish with stitching you want the LITE if not you want the HEAVY.)
-Thread
-Iron
First you start by tracing your design on the paper side of the webbing.

Applique OnesieIf you aren't stitching you are done.  If you are, do a stitch around the outer edge using an 1/8 inch seam allowance.  Now put it on your little one.
Applique OnesieOr make a couple and give them as a gift!
