I have about a dozen shirts to make before Thursday.

Do I have to wash them?

Can I wash them all together? They are all different colors?


After I iron on the transfer do I wash them again? and do I have to put anything in the washer like vinger?

Thanks for all the help,

I'll be waiting for an answer so I can get busy. I want them done tonight.
 
I am anxiously awaiting answers to your ?'s. I want to know the same thing especially washing afterwards.

I did wash mine prior to transferring. I read the tip section and it says it gets the sizing and starch out. And don't use fabric softner.

have fun making those shirts. ;)
 
Yes, you need to wash the shirts before doing your iron on. Remember - no fabric softner or dryer sheets. This removes the sizing from the shirts. You will need to separate the shirts as you would normally do in your regular laundry. (Similar colors together)

Washing afterwards is a personal preference. I normally wait until I have worn the shirts for my trip and wash them after I have returned. That way they are still fresh!

The vinegar is personal preference as well. I have never done it but I know others say that they do.

I hope this helps!
 
Thanks so much. Off to gather all my shirts. I have them in different bags all over the house. I may end up with more the 12 shirts!! LOL
