JLS Design 39 Posted March 20, 2017 When I have to print stuff, I use Zoo Printing, if I cannot find someone local to me, to help. Zoo Printing has a section of bags like you described: http://www.zooprinting.com/promo/nylon-drawstring-backpack Check them out, they do pretty good work, and they print a lot of my business card jobs.

Wildgoose 4,200 Posted March 20, 2017 I don't think silk will take the heat. Velvet is too... well, velvety to adhere to so you are probably in a situation where embroidery is called for. I have never seen silk listed as an acceptable fabric for the HTV I use. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DScustomprint 2 Posted March 20, 2017 I looked into that link, I need to print a bunch more text than that, probably about 200 words of product information on the back of this bag. and those are not the specific material. I'm almost positive the heat press will melt the silk. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have yet to do anything promotional from them, but I'm 99% sure that's how they work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
