Silly Question

[quantum-soul.livejournal.com]

A friend of mine wants me to crochet some pot holders for him. Not a problem. However, in an attempt to aggravate me and my dislike for the Indianapolis Colts, he wants me to make the pot holders in Colts' blue with a white horseshoe. I was just going to stitch the horseshoe on, but now I'm wondering if I couldn't use a piece of felt cut in the shape of a horseshoe and sewn on.

I have one potholder done and ready for me to sew something onto it. He is increasingly making fun of me for not getting this done, so I want to get it finished as quickly as possible.

So will felt work or do I need to attempt to use yarn and stitch a horseshoe onto it?
