I bought some transfer long time ago and was not happy with the results. I just love seeing everyone t-shirts. They look so good.
thanks!
What kind of T-shirts do you guys buy? Hanes or ANVIL? 100% cotton? or 50/50?
I purchased from two online vendors - from shirtsupplier I ordered Hanes, Gildan and Anvil. I believe the Anvil (laides) ran a little snugger than the Gildan brand. I made more than 50 shirts. About 90% of them were 100% cotton; however, I did pick up a few at the Dollar store that were 50/50 and didn't have a problem with them.
The other online vendor (Jiffyshirts.com), I didn't care for as much. Their return policy wasn't as good as shirtsupplier.com and I found very small pin holes (1 or 2 per shirt) on a few of the shirts from the other guy. I can't vouch for Amy's transfers; I used 90% HP (b'c they were on sale at HP's web site) and ~10% Avery (light) b'c I ran out and needed something I could pick up quick that wasn't the brand carried by Michaels!
