I have been selling appliqued childrens clothing for many years, even before the embroidery machines did it for you. The old fashioned way, trace, fuse, cut, iron on, then satin stitch around the design. I have tried them all, and in my many years of trials, I have come to love Heat N Bond Lite...and make sure it is Lite. The regular Heat N Bond will not let you sew around it, it gums up your needle, BIG MESS! I prefer the Heat N Bond lite because it washes so much better, especially when you are making a garment that will get washed many times. The other fusible web causes the applique to wrinkle, and just didn't look nice when it was washed. Now that I am quilting, I haven't appliqued anything that had to be washed yet, but I will continue to use the Heat N Bond Lite. Hope that helps you!
