Hello,
My wife just recently bought the Esante Baby Lock sewing machine in
hopes of being able to have the machine sew/stitch appliques onto baby
onesies. However, she cannot seem to find an easy way to do this. For
anyone familiar with sewing appliques onto clothing, how would you set
up the process so the applique stitching does not stitch the onesie
together? She has used a hoop to try and achieve this result, but this
stretches out the clothing too much and is not acceptable.
Is there something that you can buy to put in between the front and the
back of the onesie when sewing the applique on?
Your help is greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Kevin G.

You would need a stabilizer.

And you also need to be able to sew through a single layer of the
garment. If you can't get to a single layer, the trick is to put the
design on BEFORE sewing the garment pieces together. :)

My wife buys the onesies from a wholesaler, and they're already sewn
together. Is this how most larger businesses sew appliques on onesies
-- before the onesie itself is sewn together?
Thanks,
Kevin G.
