Design T-shirts
Instructions No. 2517Become a textile designer and create great works of art on T-shirts with high-quality textile colours. With our templates you can create fashionable T-shirts - also ideal as a gift for your loved ones. Of course, you can also easily implement your own ideas.
Here's how:
Pre-wash the T-shirts without fabric softener first. It is important that you do not use any additives such as fabric softener so that the colours can penetrate the fabric well and last. The textile dye is ready to use and can be used directly from the bottle. The colours can also be mixed with each other. For an intensive colouring, use the fabrics dry. For a light colouring, moisten the fabric.
First prepare a small bowl with the pure textile dye. Now place a craft pad in the T-shirt so that it does not dye through on the back. Place the template with the lines on the backing. This way you can simply paint the lines straight onto the shirt. Now apply the colour with a brush. Leave the ends to "run out" with a little paint. Now let the T-shirts dry. You can speed up this process by using a hair dryer. After the drying time, you can iron the textile paint without steam.
MOTIVES:
For the motifs, place the template with the motif under the T-shirt and trace it. It can just as well be transferred with graphite paper and traced that way. For this, the paper must lie with the graphite side on the fabric. Place the printed pattern on top and trace the motifs with a pencil or sharp object. Use a fine POSCA marker to trace the pre-printed design. The POSCA marker is iron-fixed from the left.
Info: Fabrics with the textile dye can be washed in the washing machine at max. 90° C. Fabrics with Posca markers can only be washed in the washing machine up to max. 30° C., as the writing or motifs would have to be redrawn at a higher temperature.
