How to print onto fabric using a computer

by Carol G

One way to get print onto fabric is by using iron on transfers. Softball teams, groups and organizations can have their names printed onto T-shirts, flags or banners. A favorite poem or quotation can be transferred this way, as well. Photos of grandkids or best friends, or simply a scenic photograph can be transferred, as well.

The first iron on transfers were limited to white or pastel colors. Now these transfer packets also come for use on darker colors. The easiest to use is the original. The transfers for darker colors are thicker because the opaque white has been added. It is really thick and rubbery with the addition of the white background, making it difficult to use.

The package directions on either type are quite well written. If there's a problem, the company can be reached by email, or telephone.

Iron on transfers are a good way to make unique prints on many fabrics limited only by one's imagination.
