Hi there. I was reading a trip report and came across a reference to this site. My family is having a grand gathering and I would love for us to have matching shirts - they may not love it but who cares!!!! LOL.

Can someone help point me in the right direction of this - I really am very new to any of this and any and all suggestions are welcomed.

There are so many neat things on this board you are all very talented people. I can barely make my clothes match let alone create the things you have!!!

Thanks a lot for your help and guidence!!!

do you want the shirts to be exactly alike and include names of all in your party? do you want dates? do you want each of the 15 to be customized to the individual? make those decisions and post and someone will create something for you!! do you want Mickey head DISigns? And specific character preference?

I suggest you look through some of the threads and get an idea of what you are looking for!!
 
Thanks for mentioning those things.

I would like for us all to have the same shirts. Actually if it is possible I would like to have all 15 of us on the back of the shirt - stick people??? and on the front of the shirt our individual families with names. Does that sound possible?

There is my family of 4
My sisters family - 10 of them - but 2 of her 4 children have families of their own.
My nephew of my other sister.

If our dates could be on them - May 5th - May 12 2009 that would be great.

I like the people type figures that I see associated with large parties. I am not looking to individualize the shirts too much except by family like I mentioned above.

Does this help?
Thanks!!!!!!
 

It does for the most part, I think. It would enable all 15 of us to be on one shirt. I will post on there to see what she/he can do. I am still hoping though that there might be some choices out there and if so - I am interested. Maybe give someone a run for their money so to speak.
Thanks much!
 
look at kellybell's site. she has several disigns that are for grand gatherings and may be able to list all your names. you can also try lisabell she does the stick people and future imagineer does the have you seen my family with the list of names. we just finished getting our shirts together for our gg of 13 and leave tomorrow, i can't wait to finally wear them after all the work we put into them. have fun on your trip!!!
 
Are your shirts posted somewhere that I can see? Have a great trip tomorrow!

Michelle

yes I posted them a few days ago along with all my other projects we made for the trip, it says something like completed projects and many thanks. i'm off in 30 minutes, can't wait!!, trying to pass the time.
 
We had a grand gathering in Dec 08 -- sooo much fun! Anyway Everydaymathchick did a great design for our t-shirts--we got a lot of complements on them -- so check out pg 82, number 1224. Have fun!
 

Kelly - I really like the first one! So cute! I think my family would like it too. How do I go about personalizing it and then adhering to shirts? I have no idea about these things!!

Thanks

Just let me know what family name you would like and then you have decide what color shirt you want to put it on Light or Dark color and then go to your local store and buy iron on transfer paper for your computer Light or Dark and then print and iron. If you choose to put the disign on a Dark color shirt I will need to put a border around the disign so I will need to know this before I persoanlize it:goodvibes
 
Thanks so much!!!
There are 2 families going - can you mine and my sisters. Can you either put both of our names Okalski & Hood or do 1 for each of us? I am thinking it would be cool to have them on white shirts. Do you ususally put the year or no?

This is awesome!! Thanks a lot!

Can you tell me how I go about printing it though - seriously I am dumb. Do I save it in a file and then print it?

Thanks again!

You're welcome, yes just save it from my photobucket (make sure to click on it so it opens up to 100% size) and then save it as a jpeg to your My Pictures folder on your computer. Then open it from your My pictures folder choose print and when the printer properties option appears be sure to choose "mirror image" (because you have choosen light transfers)and then for paper type choose iron on transfer paper and best quality and then print and iron on! Be sure to follow the manufacturers instructions carefully! Good Luck! There is also a thread somewhere on this board that really breaks down the printing and iron on directions really well. Check that thread out. It will help you out alot. Ya see I am not too good at explaining it by typing the directions and since you can't come over to CT so I can show you in person this is the best I can say:rotfl:
