One thing I've only made very limited trials with, but have great hopes for
when it comes to aligning those pesky guards just right: a thin layer of
plain old Elmer's school glue. You know, the sort that washes out of your
clothing. As long as the fabric is soakable, it all seems to come out with
no staining, and since it takes a while to dry you have time to reposition
things. The bond is weak enough that if nothing else, you can just peel it
off, add a touch more glue, and put it back in another place. You'd still
have to sew the applique down, of course, but it's a nice cheap easy
alternative.
