Yes this is included in our fall/winter line 2007.

yes, you can do this yourself with a heat press and transfers.
you can also buy off the shelf plastisol stars, skulls, icons etc... and add it to your own logo creations etc. Vary popular now because it makes every item unique all-over-type printing.

or you can get a screen printer to do it for you.

you can buy ready made screen printed plastisol transfer stars in all sizes and all types of colors, solids, glitters and so on.

then hook up with a place or buddy with a heat press and go crazy with it.

OR, (this would cost a lot more money), you can get the fabric made and than have a sewer make the shirts, OR hook up with a screen printer that does ALL-over printing. Greg, a member here posted a link to a printer but i dont know it off hand..... try a search for all over printing.

Default Re: design question

There are two ways to accomplish this.. either have the fabric screenprinted and sewn into shirts, or have regular shirts screenprinted "all over". You *could* do it with plastisol transfers but I would not recommend that, it could take forever, especially if you want to do a lot of shirts.

Like Lucy said, search the forums for "all over" or "all-over" to find more threads. This technique is a frequent topic of discussion around here so you will find lots of posts about it.

Here's the link to the thread with the contact info for some printers who do "all over" printing.
