2 ways to do it, you can get the fabric made with your graphic/pattern and buy rolls of it.

OR you can also order transfers ( 25x38 max. size).

Both ways, not cheap.

...sometimes what designers do, is go out and buy already printed fabric and add their logo/design etc to the shirts via plastisol transfers or direct screen print.

...just an idea or 2.

that kind of a shirt looks like is made with pre-printed fabric. You can tell because of the binding around the neck is sewed over the print.

Also have a look at the sleeves, the print does not flow from the body to the sleeve.

For that you need to buy fabric rolls than cut/sew your own shirts.

printing with transfer designs after the shirt is made looks like the photo below, notice how the print flows over from the body to the sleeve.

actually the shirt i posted, i made with photoshop, thats not a real shirt....not yet atleast. so if you can do all those designs that you have on that shirt via transfers, can you do the same thing with my type of pattern? or make it resemble my pattern?

...like I said the shirt you need done looks like you need to get the fabric custom made because your sample shows the neck binding stitched over the design. Than you need to make the shirts via a CUT/SEW company. Call around fabric mills and cut/sew places to get prices. Like i said NOT cheap.

With transfers, NOT cheap either, BUT Notice the difference BELOW, they are NOT ONE repetitive pattern LOGO, for that you need to get THE FABRIC MADE as i explained above.

The guy that makes this type of all-over printing, the minimum order is $ 20,000 worth of screen printed transfers only.

there is a lot involved.

just an Idea for Holloween.

...not its NOT done with photoshop.
