Could perhaps try "Heat N Bond" ...

Claire, I think 'Visoflix'(spell?) would do the job. I use two layers of that to make applique iron on. I buy mine at Spotlight. Love,Yoriko

Hi Claire (as Yoriko says) yes that's the stuff I use. I use it all the time for sewing on appliques for my church things. It is paper with a sticky backing. You cut out the shape you need, press the sticky side to your piece of fabric then peel off the paper and then you iron your piece of applique or label etc. etc. onto your project. It is fabulous stuff - I spell it Vliesoflix though. Any good fabric store should sell it. I usually get mine at Spotlight too - it is cheaper than most places.

Love and blessings Chris

(a newer stuff is called applifix)

Just a note, I remember this because I thought it was so strange. You might want to make sure the name is on the INSIDE of the bag, so some stranger can't gain the child's trust by calling him by name. People with kids & grands might have a better take on this, I guess I didn't know society had sunken to such depths. Maybe in OZ it hasn't, I hope for your sake. Luv, Marji

how about 6o6 fusible spray, spray it on and let dry, then iron. best price i've seen is at long creek mills, link below..
