Fabric Applique Boy Onesies

Just within the past few weeks I've had family and several friends that have had babies. All of these babies have been boys! Crazy huh? I needed some quick but cute gifts to give so I made these darling fabric applique onesies. 
Supplies needed:
Baby onesies
Fabric Scraps
Heat n Bond Ultrahold (NO-SEW)
Various templates-the sky's the limit with these. Just google a shape you want. Print and cut out. 
Iron


Love this stuff! 

Trace your template onto the smooth side of the heat n bond then iron onto the wrong side of your fabric. Cut out your fabric shape. Peel off heat n bond paper then place on onesie where you want it and iron on. That's it! You can also add embellishments like buttons or ribbon. So fun! I can't wait to make some baby girl onesies!

    I found you via Pinterest! These are sooo cute! Plus, they totally look easy to make - Bonus!! One question though, do the shapes ever unravel along the edges when you use the Heat Bond? Even after lots of washes? Just wondering how they hold up long-term! Thanks!!

    Ohhh, I'm so excited...I enjoy doing applique, but not so much on small pieces, and not so much on stretchy material. I've wanted to do some T-Shirts and Onesies for my baby boy, but putting it off.

    Now I'm thrilled because -- even though I've been sewing (and appliqueing) for years -- I HAD NO IDEA THAT THERE WAS A NO-SEW UTLRAHOLD HEAT 'N BOND!!!

    How in the world have I missed this? Lol. This changes my world, I can't wait to try it! Though a little part inside of me is still wondering if it really works, lol.

    And I think it can really suit well using any kind of fabric but cotton is still the best option when you're talking about a onesie because the comfort is just different from any kind of fabric. Thanks for the share! I love your input in this.

      For the most part they hold up well but I have had a few that the edges curled up. I would recommend sewing around the edges if you don't want this to happen.
