Pieced snowman/santa face applique for sweatshirt pattern?

Hi, me again Can anyone tell me a resource online or a book I might find to give patterns/instructions on how to make a fabric pieced applique to sew on to a sweatshirt?  I want it pretty large to take up most of the body of the front of the shirt. Anyone know what I mean, and/or/if you could help me find such a thing?
Thanks so much; you're always so very kind in patient in your replies-what a great site!

I have found the directions on this website to be very helpful. There are some snowman patterns.

I've used their "Try Techniques" section repeatedly.

Good Luck,

Kim,
Thanks for the help-but I can't seem to find any applique patterns on there. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place? I did find the step by step instructions for machine sewing on appliques, which was very helpful, but no templates or patterns. If you wouldn't mind, could you tell me where I should be looking on that site?
Thanks so much again,

Here were 2 that I found when looking at the site:

While they aren't specifically designed to be sweatshirts, I would take those snowmen patterns and enlarge to fit a sweatshirt. Then follow their assembly directions and put it on the shirt.

I found them by typing snowman in the search box at the top of the page.

Thanks so much for the links. I think the first one is what I'm looking for. I'm going to try to enlarge it to make it on a sweatshirt. If you come across any larger ones for a project like that, would you let me know?
Thanks again!
