Thank you for posting Diane. I found it useful. What type of cart are you using for your SG and press? It looks nice and compact.

Where did you get your cart? Love it and I purchased the same printer but I really like how organized the cart looks. Thank for the info you can give me...

great tutorial! Excited to try it. I love the stand where you have your press and printer on. Do you mind sharing where you bought it from? TIA

Thanks for the video! Do you have a video showing how you cut out the thermoflex....did you upload the same pic you sublimated into design space and simply cut it?

Thanks, Lorrie. Just getting into sublimation so I'm a little late seeing your video. Question - how does this differ from something like June Tailor's tee shirt transfer? (Could be cheaper - June Tailor costs about $1/sheet.)

Thanks for sharing your videos which are so helpful. How do you prevent sewing on the backside of the hat when sewing on the front?

So is the picture still infused into the shirt this way or is it sitting on top of the shirt like normal htv? TY

does the white vinyl on black work as well? i need something that will be vivid on a black shirt. thanks!

What side are you using to cut and what side lay in the shirt to press it down. It's hard to tell because it's clear

Thank you

Questions, is this flexible because most cotton has a stretch. Is it stiff and thick feeling meaning it will be horrible on tiny baby onesies/rompers?

Hi Lorrie! Where did you get the cart your press and printer sit on?

Thank you for this information. I love your craft area. Would you share where you purchased your table that holds your heat press and printer? I love it and think I might need one.

What heat parchment paper do you recommend? I have the htv glitter vinyl and want to sublimate on it for sweatpants. I don’t have a cricut. How could I still sublimate? Hand cut somehow? Ideas pls. Ty so muc

Video was very helpful. W here did you get the table that youe heat press ad printer is on.

So do you have to mirror the clear cut? And when you iron on the clear htv is the sticky side on top or bottom?

I had a devil of a time separating the transfer paper. I tried different heat/time setting, but it still took several minutes. The whole sheet wanted to come up.

Does the Sublimation ink dull or fade when it's washed?

So you know how many washes it will last?

What washer setting should I put my washer on when washing a t-shirt with the same transfer method as you shown in this video

I have the Cricut brand Holographic Iron-On...will that work as well? Thank you! And thank you for the video...the cotton shirt came out beautifully! :)

Did you cut it on your circut machine. If so what settings. I can’t get mine to cut through the htv

Yes you can do it that way. My thought process was that the sublimation ink is only going to get heat zapped once. I’m sure it’s fine once it’s transferred onto the vinyl to be heat set again but I just felt better about doing it this way. I have seen others transfer it to the vinyl first with success.
