First shirt

Recommended Posts

I was trying to think of something funny to put on a shirt, this is what I came up with.  ;D (I know it's not a new idea BTW)

It's siser easy weed on a jersey 50/50 shirt.  I think the text needs to be a little smaller, but other then that I like it.  My wife doesn't care for it much.

I went to Joann's a couple of days ago and they had the Jersey shirts 50% off regular price.  Regular color tees were $1.98.  They also had women's fitted tees for the same price.  I bought 40 of them.  :huh:

Nice! did you use a heatpress..?

Yes.  The vinyl was the 15"x1yrd sample I got from Uscutter.

Hopefully I can get a graphics program soon so I can do more than just text.  I'm creatively challenged.  Text are about as far as my ability will take me right now. :huh:

looks good!

By the way, I do alot of stuff without using any kind of graphics program...lol. As long as it is a vectorized file, your cutting software can open it. I'm challenged as far as creating a graphic on my own but I can download vector files with the best of them! LOL!!

Just a thought!

SBE is a great program and easy to learn.  That's what I've been using. 

Fully functional?  I can't say for sure.  I know the help talks about more features than SBE has.  Chop and Fill are a couple that I've noticed. (not sure what I'd do with those is if I had them :huh: )  Also the help references the effects menu that isn't in my version.

I will try the 10 inch on the next shirt. 

Thanks again for the all the support and great comments.  Like I've said before this forum was why I bought the LP24!

Shirt looks nice  :huh:

I learned from a screenprinter that graphics are better a 10" wide, not matter what size the shirt is. Even if it is XXL, you have 10" for a nice visible design, the other inches go to the sides of the person's body, like a cilinder.

I used to have the same problem before, I would do 12" graphics and they wouldnt read well. Im using 10" now, no problem.

Good luck.

Hey Joe,

quick question for ya....would that same apply to the back of a tshirt or hoodie? I have made some fire fighter- rescue stuff and while I did em smaller on the front I did em bigger on the back though not much bigger as i am using a 12 inch cutter but waiting on a bigger one. at the biggest i could go with the 12 inch cutter the graphics still look small on the back of the shirt/ hoodie to me, so what do you suggest for the backs?
