I've been using a natural tote made by BAGedge (BE010) for photo transfers.
The body is 100% cotton, the handle is a different color and needs to never come in contact with heat!
I use light transfers, the natural is close to white. Others use opaque paper.
I also use a teflon pillow (from imprintables.com) that fills the bag and allows me to get good pressure on a transfer. Remember to squeeze the air out as you get close to the press lock down. I use very heavy pressure with the pillow.
I load it on the press with the handle toward me and hanging outside the platen. The cotton has a tendency to yellow if you over heat it, don't over do it with the pre-press warm up and you will be fine.
Sold several with a picture of the customers dog on it. I made a little 'bone' graphic under the photo that has the dog's name on it.
