There are laser papers that are trim-free (self weeding) that work great for light colored garments.

I am not sure about stahls material, but i know our thermoflex layers great and yes you would do an entire design in two colors, separate them on the computer, cut them, and than eye it or use a ruler or a laser to place them on the garment.

That is true - the downside to sublimation is you have to sue a polyester or poly blend shirt but the results are incredible

The shirts do rum more - like 6-8 and your are limited to light colors but for people working outside to not have the transfer trapping sweat and heat they seem to love them.  They are moisture wicking shirts
