I would stitch it on a plain piece of fabric and sew that to the
blanket.  Charge her extra for the patch.

Hey Group!
A customer brought in a knit baby blanket today for me to add a name and
birth date. Of course it happens to be a cable stitch knit and chenille
yarn. I'm looking for any suggestions on how to tackle this beast beyond
the obvious things. Would any DS script font work better than another?
I'm looking at lettering height of .65 to .70. What about density and
column width. Should I use a zigzag underlay? I'm really worried about
backing because the backside will need a clean finished look with no
backing showing. I'm worried about stability of the stiching if I use a
tear away. This is a pretty loosely knit blanket. She's not to worried
if the blanket doesn't look to great when I'm done as I have blankets on
hand that she can purchase that would work much better and we did
discuss the potential problems in advance. Any and all advice is needed
and welcome!!!
TIA,
