How to Dye-Sub a Polyester Shirt
Give your everyday polyester shirt a creative upgrade with this fun dye sublimation project, where we take a different approach using multiple small designs to create a unique scattered layout. Instead of a single large print, this method builds your design piece by piece, allowing for more flexibility and a truly custom finish. Perfect for experimenting with placement and getting more out of your sublimation setup, this project is all about thinking outside the box and making something that’s completely your own.
Want to save paper and avoid waste? In this video, we print multiple designs on a single page to create this dye-sublimated shirt. Check out our tutorial on compiling and printing multiple designs onto one A4 sheet →
