How to Sublimate on Cotton & Dark Colors with HTV, EasySubli, & Spray ... plus DTV!

Learn how to sublimate on cotton and dark colors using different materials for fantastic results! Sublimation creates beautiful designs, but the high polyester content it requires can limit your project options. What if you want to decorate an item with natural fibers? I definitely prefer cotton shirts over a polyester shirt! Well I'll teach you how to sublimate on cotton! We'll look at several different ways to use my free t-shirt designs (you can also use the other options in my resource library!) and explore the pros and cons of each cotton sublimation project. Some of the techniques have special results to make your work really glow! I'll also show you how each technique fares once its washed and dried.

I've watched hours and hours of YouTube videos on Sublimation Printing on Cotton and Black Cotton fabrics. Your video was the most informative and I especially liked the before and after washing comparison. Thank you so much for all your tips. You are truly an amazing crafter and teacher. 🖤

Best video I’ve seen on how to sublimate to darker fabric. So many options and easy to follow instructions. Thanks 😊

Hi, I normally don't leave a lot notes but I just wanted to let you know how impressed I was with your video. You explained every step in detail, I loved that you did the wash test because at the end of the day that is important and it's obvious that you spent a ton of time making this exceptional video. I really appreciate the work you put into this. Thank you.

I can’t wait to view this. You are so on point with is currently relevant and you explain everything so well. Thank you!!

[ashleygiron]

I really appreciate all your time and effort that you put into all this. You have made my life so much better.

[julieperkins]

Thank you so much for going step by step. Others talk so fast and constantly move the curser all over the screen and show stuff you don’t need to do. I totally thought I had to use the back of the mask as the base - and wasted so many sheets. Thank you.

[carolwrigh]

Jennifer, you are very thorough with your directions. I enjoy your videos over the millions out there.

[ginamariegarcia]

I have sublimated before and stopped crafting. I am getting back to it and see new ways. I love cotton shirts as well

[adpntr]

Absolutely the best, most concise, and straightforward video on the whole subject of crafting materials on fabrics!
A million thanks to you!👍👏🏽👌🏾

[amyrupp]

Thank you so much for this video! I love that you give multiple options and that you tested how they washed after finished. I am so excited by the options for sublimating on dark colors or cotton!

[koakes]

I finally attempted to do sublimation on easy subli for my grandsons 3rd birthday tee shirt. Thanks to your great explicit direction I was able to achieve success. Thank you for making my fear of sublimation on cotton such a breeze! You are so very good at what you do.

Ok so.... I'm one of those people that reads all the reviews yet never leaves my own review on Amazon, holiday sites, watches all the YouTube videos etc and still no comment. Here is my first, thank you thank you I have tried so many different methods to get my business logo looking good on my garments to no avail. I too questioned why I shouldn't print directly onto the easysubli??!! who am I to doubt you 🤷‍♀ this gives a much more clear and vibrant result fabulous 🥂

[baylonafoster]

I havent tested this yet, but be reassured your videos and the way you present and info is absolutely fabulous. At first i thought this is gonna be informative but long, i was incorrect. Its informative and so easy to watch. Thank you so much for taking the time away from what i assume, baking lol and making this. Youre such a home maker.
