Packing & Ironing Question

[kristisomer]

Okay when you all packed your t-shirts with the iron-ons did you pack them in a special way to keep the iron-ons from sticking? I was thinking about maybe putting them in ziploc baggies. Any thoughts or ideas?

My second question is I just did an transfer on dark paper but put in on a black fleece jacket and hardly ironed long at all but the black showed through on the iron-on. Any ideas on why? Also could I put an iron-on over an iron-on?

Thanks so much for the advice

yes, i would like to know if there are any dos and don'ts for packing

Good question. I will be packing soon and would love to know too.

Well we leave in 3 days, still waiting what should be done.
I would hate to find them all stuck together and ruined, then we would have to go t-shirt shopping.

I don't know about the iron on an iron on question but I do know if you pack your t-shirt inside out, it shouldn't stick to anything.

You'll want to test it first but I've had good luck doing this.

I made over 21 shirts for our trip in August. The kids had no idea that they would have shirts for each day. I layered them in my extra suitcase in the order that we would wear them I had no sticking problem..good luck...

i just folded mine (design up) and packed one on top of the other; no problems for the trip down or back. And, I've been folding them & putting them in my drawer the same way w/o incident so far.

re the black bleeding through, I could only guess that perhaps it's the fabric you're putting the transfer on but it's just a guess.
