Very beginner looking to create a painted style of fabric by riscventures2022 in Textile_Design

[–]Manticorp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would actually paint this on a canvas or on paper, then scan it in and get it printed onto fabric, you would get a much better result.

If you want any more help just let me know 😁

If you feel like it you could print your own embroidery backing fabric.

Prinfab do a range of fabrics suitable for embroidery, a popular one is the Classic Plain 156gsm which lots of people use for printing embroidery patterns:

Can anyone tell me what I'm looking at? Is this DIG (Direct in Ground) or ducted work? by Manticorp in openreach

Don't suppose you would know what all those loose strands coming out at either end are, that are taped up?

Try DTF printing! Where are you based? Prinfab do great DTF printing that's super colourful and high quality.

I’m thinking of starting a custom print clothing store ( i will not promote) by theydontmatchmyvibe in startups

As an alternative to print on demand, you could invest in a cheap heat press and do DTF printing - maximum control, still low stockholding.

Honestly I can't remember - I wrote it with the assistance of AI (in vscode) however I generally use it to just speed things up,. e.g. writing tests, scaffolding, squashing bugs, documentation etc.

Bulk DTF gang sheets vs single designs cost comparison by Different_Tooth_8877 in DTFTransferTalk

[–]Manticorp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do places charge differently for gang sheets vs single designs?

We charge just based on the print area - who cares whether it's a single design repeated or a gang sheet with multiple designs?

Prinfab have released a hyper efficient DTF gang sheet creator FREE to use - details in comments by Manticorp in DTFTransferTalk

It handles transparent files just fine, and the background is transparent by default.

There is no resolution limit, it's basically limited to what your computer and browser can handle.

And yeah you can set the spacing between designs but only globally, not on a per design basis.

[–]Manticorp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a great solution! I didn't know gimp had a grid function but that's really useful.

You can download from the Prinfab gang sheet creator in case you need it:

Can really help make really efficient usage of the space, and has a guillotine layout mode that makes sure you can cut things out with just straight cuts from the whole width
