Hi Maurio,

Welcome Aboard, everyone has a problem at one time or another aligning a transfer. There are some commercial aids available. Badlou a member of this forum has one, check it out at:

Good Luck with your transfers.

That is a great comment... I think I will show my wife... She has a different opinion.. LOL. No really I just had an idea that I thought would work and I put it out there and everyone seems to be happy with it. Lou

Thanks Badalou, I just made my first order. I am new to the field and want to do my own designs more than doing anything for anyone else, so this comes extremely handy for me..

You may consider lightly pressing a crease right down the center of the item for a reference point. It's obviously very easy to fold a shirt in half.
