My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Putting design on a T-shirt

19 years ago

Hello

I have T-shirts that are 100% cotton. I

will be using polymesh fusible and cutaway. My question is:

Q1: Do you prewash your T-shirts BEFORE you embroider a design on them?

Q2: Do you NOT prewash your T-shirts BEFORE you embroider a design on them?

Q3: Have you done it both ways?

Q4: Did you find there is a difference?

Q5: Did you use the same kind of stabilizer both times?

What would you suggest? thank you
