Appliques Craft

What is the best way to center an applique on a shirt?

I have recently purchased some iron on rhinstone transfers to decorate some of my shirts. I have been centering them on the shirt just by eye balling them using the shirt tag as a guide but I figure there has to be an easier way. I am using these iron ons to make shirts for friends so I have several to do. Is there something that I can purchase at a craft store to lay on the shirt to help me find the center? Any help would be appreciated.

I fold the shirt in half, matching the underarms seams together, and then use my fingernail to make a little crease down the front. You can also use a ruler and a disappearing ink fabric marker.
