Take any of our "blanks" and iron on an applique. Make sure your iron is hot enough and that you press the applique on securely. You do need to stitch them down to ensure they stay on. They'll survive a few washings without it, but not forever. I found the best look for stitching them down is to use a small straight stitch with matching thread just inside the border of the applique.
applique towel bib
This is Michael Miller's Blue Dotty Dot fabric on a towel bib. I like the monogram because it's not too girly for a boy's bib.
