Clever ways to customise Muslin cloths..?

[monkeybump]

I love sewing names in chain stitch but Muslin is so open weaved is doesnt really work.. I wondered if I iron something on the back it will help?

Any other tips/suggestions welcome!

Could you edge them in ribbon? Or tiedye them?

I dyed mine with Dylon dyes. Loose weave may affect iron-on stuff too.

Give them to my 3 year old. He'll chew the corners off then complain his 'blankie' doesn't have any corners

Permenant ink pad and stamps. I put paw prints on mine. Versa craft (not colour) set with hot iron

i tie dyed mine with dylon.

How about a crochet or blanket stitch edging?

I bought some with little animals printed on

Freehand machine appliqué? - thinking Poppy Treffry style flowers or a tractor?
