Today's the day.....28 tshirts are waiting for me! - UPDATED WITH PICS!!

[cjemscott]

I am getting ready to apply DISsigns to 28 tshirts today! Tshirts are all prewashed (no fabirc softner), Iron-ons all printed out on light/dark transfers, iron is set to go......

Anyone with last minute tips for me??

Same here. I keep coming back to the boards for inspiration. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed at this huge stack of shirts!!

And truly kicking myself for buying a pack of light transfers. What can I do with these? All of my shirts are colored and my designs ALL have white in them. Any suggestions??

I am almost done with tshirts! Had my wonderful mom's help - they look so good!

I will say that even though the dark transfers are more expensive, they are worth the money...if you have colored shirts and have white areas I would advise you to get dark transfers. Just my opinion - others may have different.

Will post pics as soon as I can!

HERE THEY ARE!! (well - here's 24 of them - have to redo transfers on 2 of them and finish them later)

Thanks so much for all the great DISigners! You are all awesome! I know most of these are from Marion worship but please take credit for your DISigns if they are yours!

They turned out GREAT! Thanks for sharing.

Wow! You made much more progress than I did! I have only completed 5 shirts. Most of our shirts are front and back, so it's a little slower. And it should go much more quickly for me now since I have placement for each person down pat. Hopefully I will be able to post finished pictures in a couple days!

Your shirts look awesome!

Thanks! I can't imagine doing front and back - that would take forever! I also had my mom helping me - so we had two irons going!

Good luck and can't wait to see yours!

I did do something to solve the white problem on some of the designs I used, but it is not easy and you must have photoshop, but I went in and recolored all of the white a very, very light grey - so it basically printed gray, but you can't really see the gray - it looks white. Also on some yellow shirts I left the white white and for the most part it did not make a big difference - Minnie has yellow polka dots on her dress, so now she matches Mickey's shoes. I personally don't like the dark transfers - they crack when washed - or at least the two brands I have tried cracked (the Hobby Lobby brand and some from Michaels - both cracked when washed and we did not wear the shirts again they looked so bad).

Does anyone know who did the blue 2010 disign that is on the blue shirts? My kids want this one, and I have looked through a million photobuckets with no success.

I think it is either Milliepie's or Rustmanfan's.

OK so now that YOUR THE PRO you must give us that are entering the boat that you just came from .. (about to begin my own many many shirts) tips..

I am guessing that the first tip is to buy for dark transfer paper..
