I have been binge watching your videos. You are an excellent teacher! Thank you sooooo much for doing these. 😊 I am learning all I can about sublimation, as I am getting ready to get into it. I’m so excited!!! 😃
I love watching your videos. I love the steps you show! Iv learned a lot from your videos. I also love how you show howbits don't rather then just talk about it then you do it fast! Thank you again for showing how to do theses shirts!
Putting the tape on the shirt was genius! It made it so much easier to line up my sub fabric! Thanks so much! Great video. New subscriber and small business owner!
I used a Rowena iron which I found a lot easier for the bonding of the polyester to the shirt then using the heat press and I did vertical cuts with a sublimated tiger behind like a cage. Thanks for showing all the tips and the materials you used. I was very satisfied with clothing shop for buying shirts - thanks for the recommendation. They were reasonably priced and fast shipping. All of your suggestions were very helpful.
I know, its so frustrating. If you go to www.clothingshoponline.com they will let you sign up for email notifications when a certain color and size gets back in stock.
This is the first video of your's that I've watched and I loved it. You and your music are so calming, I sometimes it anxious trying new things, but I'm sure your videos will help. Thank you
You is the best instructor ive heard on here and in person lol. Thank you. I think I’ve found me a hobby for me because I hate buying pre designed shirts now I rather make my own
You can also use the microfiber sheets that you find at Walmart. or pillowcases. I've done that and it works great. microfiber fabric is apparently polyester.
Thank you so much Cindy! I know I go into a lot of detail in my videos. Most of my viewers are new to the Sublimation world, so I find the more detail the less I leave them with questions. Also, thank you for responding to others questions! I have noticed, and I thank you so much!
Great video! Just clarifying that sublimation is actually when a solid turns to a gas without passing through the liquid stage, not liquid to a gas without passing through the solid stage 😊. Also, I add my Heat n Bond to the edge of the poly first instead of to the shirt. That way it’s always in the right spot. 😊
Thanks for the Heat n Bond tip. I’ll give it a shot but have to say I’m still a bit skeptical. I did have it placed correctly but it simply would not stick to a degree that made it saleable . The funny thing is that I had this stuff I had bought at a yardsale. Never knew exactly what it was... turned out to be a version of the Heat n Bond ( and theres a full role of it )! lol! It holds stronger than the other product so I’m using that! Still wouldn’t sale because I just don’t trust any of it enough... But use it for my own shirts!!
@@beinok it only takes a little heat. If you overheat it, it breaks down the adhesive and won’t stay bonded. So make sure you follow the directions closely.
I make memory bears and purchase pillows for the stuffing( less expensive). I only purchase pillows with 100% polyester outer shells and that is what I use for my sublimation projects including a picture on the bears Paw. I sent my 15 year old granddaughter a link to your video and she fell in love with the shirt. We are going to make some for her. Thank you so much for such a detailed helpful video.
I have noticed the difference in the shirts with pieces of thread hanging and even have gotten some with little round holes in them!...I use Gildan 6400 as well....I can say they have been awesome at replacing any with the small holes!....Definitely going to try making this type of shirt for my girls!!
Isn't it so sad! Everywhere is begging and desperate for employees! I'll still stay devoted to Gilden, they will always be my go to shirt! I keep the damaged shirts and use them for test shirts. I wish them the best of luck in getting their warehouses back up to their best operating potential!
You've definitely did things that I didn't see in other peek a boo shirt demonstration! I love the paper template idea! Great job and techniques. I was also thinking about using my cutting board! LOL I'm going to try this over the weekend if I can find some material in the store! I'm excited and can't wait!! Thank you! How did the washing comes out?
I First time watching your channel loved it I'm interested in doing this type of shirt with sublimation. Right just watching and when I get ready and have all the equipment . I will watch your channel you're awesome
How did you do the image for the Superman shirt? Typically white is used for sublimation. Loved the video - instructions were clear and shirts are SUPER CUTE!! Thanks
I love this look, however wondering how the heat n bond held up....as usual great video...i just found your videos and now i look for them....love the little tips you offer, i.e. healing the cutting mat....
Loved your video! I’m going to try this! One suggestion on the Freddy shirt- I’m wondering if it you made the design with a background so it was rectangular? The other shirt didn’t have the white and with the Freddy one I think the white is a little distracting. Easy fix just make a rectangle and fill it, then put your design in it and print. I do love the look. Nice work!
I absolutely love this video. You are such a great instructor! And I agree with you 100% that the Gildan shirts are getting worse. You just can't even forget that you have bleach on them and leave tehem in the sun too loing, or you get holes UGH!!
Omg I love this idea!!! I can't wait to try it ...Can you please tell me the color for the Guns and Roses shirt .And where you got it. Please. I really want to make that one .Thanks for sharing your ideas
Thanks for subbing! I purchased my press from My Craft Source, they are always out of stock though so you have to check on their site daily. You may be able to call them and ask when they expect their next shipment. When they do restock they are gone within a matter of hours. Here is the link for mine. mycraftsource.com/starcraft-15-x-15-clam-shell-heat-press-mint.html

You are welcome Laura, and thank you for subscribing! I have a video coming in the next few months on how to apply a polyester patch to a hat. During that video I will show you how I use the Fabric Fray. It's super simple, you just squeeze a little out onto the edges of the fabric, I use a paint brush to spread it on.
I found your channel and love love love it! Can you advise on how you price these or in general your shirts? I would appreciate a little guidance! Doing my first craft show with tshirts soon!
You really need to research your area so you can stay competitive in your market. Typically shirts can be priced between $18-$25 and sweatshirts $30-$40. Many will say it’s too expensive but for you to have a good profit margin, don’t sell yourself short.
Love your video!!! How do I make my image large enough on my cricut maker? Or can I do it in word or on my computer, print on my sublimation printer and use that. Please help. 😊 thanks
Thank you so much for watching! I've got some great tutorials where I teach you how to create in Cricut Design Space then snip the image, save to your desktop and then print from Microsoft Word. Start by watching this video, ruclips.net/video/_Zx5ZQ4oAYA/видео.html
A year later newby here, lol. Awesome video. Quick question-how big did you make you sublimation print and how big was the poly square? Thanks in advance!
Hi, Emma! I’ve recently found your channel and am SO grateful for all of the information you share! I’m just getting into sublimation. 😁 In your video, you mentioned you usually get 2 shirts in each size, in each color. Do you get ALL the sizes…XS-5X … or do you focus more on certain sizes like maybe M-2X. Do you find that certain sizes are more popular in your shop? 😃 Also, do you find that certain colors are more popular than others? There are a LOT of color options and as a newbie, I don’t think I’d want to dive that deep just yet. 😂 Thank you for sharing your knowledge. ❤️
Thanks so much for watching Connie! Medium to 2XL are my most bought sizes. The color really doesn’t matter for me it’s the design on it. So I pick a design and then I pick one color that that design will go on. I used to allow my customers to pick the colors but my inventory was so hard to keep track of.

We did something similar to this back in the 80’s….except we used fabric with a design 👍
Very cool! I love that its all coming back!
Your tutorials are AMAZING! Thanks for sharing.

I like the colors you picked for the peek a boo. Going to have to try to make this for my grandkids.

Both shirts came out nice.
Thank You!

Love the clear ruler idea as a guide for the cut and the blank paper as a template. Great Video
Thank you!
I did that same Freddy image on a seafoam green color it looked great.
I bet it looked amazing! You should share it in our Facebook Group: facebook.com/groups/533124687884930
I love this idea, just gathering all the bits and pieces to have a go ☺️

I'm a quilter so my first thought was to just use an iron for the heat bond part.
I love how you mentioned the gildan shortage it’s so hard to buy shirts right now

If cotton tees will work, this will be a great way to use them with sublimation!
Agreed! When I first started, I accidentally ordered a ton of cotton shirts, this is an excellent way to use them!
@@EmmasCottage I did the same...ordered a bunch of white cotton tees
Great idea!!!
Love it I must have missed that you turned the shirt inside out
Yes, turn it inside out to apply the image. See 19:35
You is the best instructor ive heard on here and in person lol. Thank you. I think I’ve found me a hobby for me because I hate buying pre designed shirts now I rather make my own
I'm so happy that I could help you! Thanks so much for subscribing! Lots more tutorials on my channel for you to learn!
I love the orange with the freddie..
Thank you! Me too!
First time watching your videos and I really enjoyed it. Well explained and fun project.
Awesome, thank you!
I love your energy and how you teach...thank you for sharing. I will be following you from now on!
Awesome! Thank you!
Cannot wait to try this for this Halloween!
You’ll do great!
You can also use the microfiber sheets that you find at Walmart. or pillowcases. I've done that and it works great. microfiber fabric is apparently polyester.

Great job! Loved that you showed step by step. You made it look so easy. Can’t wait to try it
I can’t wait to see what you create!
You can get stickers off with a hairdryer. You will still have the sticky left behind, however, you can use goo gone to remove that off the mat.
Thanks so much for sharing!
They turned out so amazing, and they look so much fun! Thank you for sharing!
I love watching your videos, you take us step by step every time!

Thanks for the NOTE about taking it down & ghosting
That was the 1st time I've heard of it
You’re welcome
This is so cool! I really need this in my life!
I'm so happy I could help!

Thank you Norma!
Your so awesome at teaching and amazing at your work! Thank you
I appreciate that!
Love love it. Outta the park. Again. I bought a 60x102 white polyester table cloth at Amazon for $14.
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I found 100% white polyester at Walmart for 1.93 a yard. Can't wait to try it.
@@cheritacouch4865 that’s a great price! Thanks for sharing!
Gildan is close to where I’m located. They are evidently short staffed as there are hiring signs everywhere.
Isn't it so sad! Everywhere is begging and desperate for employees! I'll still stay devoted to Gilden, they will always be my go to shirt! I keep the damaged shirts and use them for test shirts. I wish them the best of luck in getting their warehouses back up to their best operating potential!
Just awesome Emma!!
Thank you!!
Wow! Your video presentation and presence is awesome. Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you so much Monique! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Great instructions. Thank you!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Oh I was going to give away my daughter's small shirts. Now I know what to do with them. 💕
Great idea!!
I look forward to knowing the results from after it being washed and dried. :) Thank you for yet another awesome video.
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching! I'll hopefully have an update in the next two weeks. I want to wear it a few times and wash it a few times.
I enjoyed every second watching you. Nice tutorial. Keep it up. Cheers.
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm bringing these back this year :)
You should!
I like that cutting board.
Isn't it great! I love it too! Here is a link to the one I have amzn.to/3yFJScl
@@EmmasCottage Thank you Emma
They came out great! I might have only done 5 cuts for the Freddy one to make it like his glove cutting the shirt.
Oooh good idea! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. The heat n bond ultra hold (the type you’re using) is permanent so you don’t have to worry about it coming apart.
Thanks for the info!
Where did you get the heat and bond ultra hold tape
@@rhondaholder7094 I found mine at JoAnnes but you can purchase it on Amazon as well.
I get mine by the roll from Walmart and cut it into strips myself.
Love these so much. 😊
Glad you like them!
Thank you that was awesome
Thank you for watching!
I love your videos... I learn a lot... and this piece is amazing
Thank you very much!
Very nice, I can't wait to make . you are awesome, very detail and easy to follow thanks
Thanks so much 😊 I can't wait to see what you create!
The satin pillow cases from the Dollar Tree would be perfect for this!
Can you sublimate on satin? So I need to spray polyurethane on it first or something?
Stacee - Yes, as long as the satin is 100% poly. But you typically want to press it for only 45 seconds with much less pressure.
This is dope! Thank you for making this video, I’m definitely going to try this!! ♥️
Happy to help!
What kind of sublimation printer do you have. Your are so patient and kind. Thanks for sharing and teaching.
I use Koala and A-Sub. I like them both
I love this so much
Thanks so much!

I'm trying this TODAY...I'm excited ....and SCARED...lol 🤣😂🤞
Good luck and have fun!
Great job!

Nice... Great tutorial!! How fun
Thank you 🤗

The video will be here when you are ready! Thanks for watching!
How did you do the image for the Superman shirt? Typically white is used for sublimation. Loved the video - instructions were clear and shirts are SUPER CUTE!! Thanks
I used 100% white Poly. My print included the blue background. It almost looks like I used blue poly but it was white until I sublimated it.
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Love this idea!
😀
Thank you! 😊
This is so awesome. Will you do one using an glitter image?
Great suggestion! That would look really cool!
I love this look, however wondering how the heat n bond held up....as usual great video...i just found your videos and now i look for them....love the little tips you offer, i.e. healing the cutting mat....
I have made many and they have all held up great, they are not coming apart at all!

those r nice!!
can you cut the fabric,
sublimate on it and make a quilt or blanket or pillow case??
Absolutely! The possibilities are endless!
@@EmmasCottage nice tysm
I absolutely love this video. You are such a great instructor! And I agree with you 100% that the Gildan shirts are getting worse. You just can't even forget that you have bleach on them and leave tehem in the sun too loing, or you get holes UGH!!
Thanks so much for watching Trish!
Omg I love this idea!!! I can't wait to try it ...Can you please tell me the color for the Guns and Roses shirt .And where you got it. Please. I really want to make that one .Thanks for sharing your ideas
The Guns and Roses shirt is a Gilden 67000 in Pitch Black Mist. I get most of my shirts from clothingshoponline.com
@@EmmasCottage thank you. I really enjoy your videos
I love this idea and how thorough your video is! ❤ I just subscribed. Thanks for sharing.😊

I love your work this boy was very helpful and educational ✌🏾❤️
Thank you!
I love this!!!! I have softy style cotton shirts I can’t sublimate on so this is a perfect idea!

I actually thought the same thing!
Where do you order your shirts from? I love watching your videos. They help me so much!!! ❤️
I usually order from clothingshoponline.com
A year later newby here, lol. Awesome video. Quick question-how big did you make you sublimation print and how big was the poly square? Thanks in advance!
I believe both of these were printed with my smaller 8x11 printer. So the print may have been slightly smaller.
I'm betting you could trim the edges of the polyester material with a pinking shears also to prevent fraying.
That’s a great suggestion!
HEY love your heat press! That's my color where can I find one @Emma
Mycraftsource.com they have been out of stock for a bit but just keep watching for it!
Hey Emma! Great video !! How have they held up in the wash?
Mine have held up just fine! Even the strips have only slightly frayed.

Do you have a video on altering crew neck to v neck shirts? Looks like your shirt was cut and re-sewn. Very cool.
I don't have a video. I just cut a V and I do not sew it.
