what transfer paper?

[lajspeech]

what brand of transfer paper do you guys like to use? I used the clear transfers from AC Moore this past april, followed directions to a T, vinegar wash and all... they looked perfect after transfer but cracked like crazy in the washer (on delicate, cold water, no fab softener)... any ideas how I can avoid this for my MVMCP shirts? Think its just a matter of trying different transfer paper? (Staples or BJs would be my other bets for paper I suppose... I live in north/central NJ)
Thanks!

90% of mine were purchased from hp.com (buy 2 get 1 free at the time w/free next day shipping). I did have to buy 1 pkg. of Avery light transfers. Having done more than 60-70 shirts, I prefer HP to Avery but others on this board like Avery.

I've only had 1 tee crack after washing (the first time at that). I think it was in the hottest part of a laundromat's dryer as I made the exact same design on another tee in the same dryer w/no problem!

I've worn my hp transfers and washed them in the regular laundry cycle at least 3x or more since May and they're still as good as new.

I heard on another thread that you had some good tips on doing iron on transfers. Can you share with a Jersey girl newbie? It's my first time giving this a try and I can't wait. Thanks.
