I bought a cute little winter sleeper for the new great-grand-daughter but hubs thinks it looks like a boys. I decided I would add a bow to the reindeer but I can't manage to get this in the hoop & center it @ the same time so I thought I could use fusible & press it on but I am not sure how to make a patch style embroidery can anyone help me with this? ok thank you cuties for all your suggestions & I am happy to say I did just what was recommended & this is the "new" Improved sleeper with a cute hat too. Do you think this is girly now?

Why not stitch a length of ribbon on the top of her head and tie it in a bow. (On the reindeer, not the baby.) If the ribbon gets "worn" it could easily be unpicked.
BTW I think it looks really cute just as it is - and not like a boys at all!

just make your own bow cut a 4 inch square of 2 fabrics and stitch all the was around them right sides together and leave a opening for turning and then cut a 1x4 piece that you turn the sides in to make as the center of the bowturn the long side in 1/4 inch and then fold together stitch down long side and then use it on the center of your 4 inch bow and measure then you can either stich in place or pin with a small safety pin from backside. nice because you can pin whereever you want and looks 3D. However Sue is right its adorable like it is.

I love this idea!!! Thanks I will give it a go. They are farther north then we are so very cold there & this is fleece so nice & toasty warm. I agree I think it is really cute too ~hugs ~

Great sleeper very cute. Why don't you make a bow 3D and sew it on like a button. That way you can put it where you like.
Happy stitching!! :~)
