    Thanks for the tips on screen printing! We have just started to experiment with screen printing ourselves. Our company uses two types of printing at the moment, direct2garment and sublimation. This is some really cool technology that is a little different than screen printing. You should all check it out if t shirts, quilt squares, and mouse pads are something you are interested in designing!

    Silk screen printing is the most cost-effective method compared to inkjet printing or dye sublimation. By using screen printing you can imprint intricate and sharp designs over the clothes.
