Infusible inks Are sublimation inks. Infusible is just a trademark that Cricut uses for their brand of sublimation sheets and sublimation pens. Infusible = Sublimation. You Can use permanent markers on cotton, then heat set or time set (leave it undisturbed for a week or 2 before wearing and/or washing) the ink and allow it to sit undisturbed for a week or two to cure after heat setting. Then wash and dry and wear. Note: the more pastel colors may change or fade when heat set and/or washed, so stronger colors would last longer, with reds and pastel blues being the weakest (most easily washed out despite heat setting) and black being the strongest (least likely to fade or wash out).
Hey Sara, I love your video.💕 Tons of helpful info and great demonstrations. Thank you so much for sharing. Question: You mentioned that you put the bleached shirts directly in the washer after they finished processing in the sun. Other people say you should put the shirts in the hydrogen peroxide to stop the process after reaching the color stage you want. I just want to make sure it's ok to wash them instead of putting them in the peroxide first. Also, did you immediately wash all the different colored shirts together or separately? Thank you 😊
Im so glad you found it helpful:) That is a great question! Yes, you can spray it with hydrogen peroxide if you want to and I sometimes do. If I’m working on a lot of shirts and want to stop the processing on some before the others are done I’ll spray them. If it’s really hot and sunny and they are turning too fast for me, I’ll spray them. But, sometimes I skip it. I do throw them all in the wash together and never had an issue with colors bleeding. I hope that was helpful:)
Great video. I just stumbled on your video on my youtube channel on tv. Just wanted to let you know that I had trouble finding your channel on my computer when I put in "Craft Create Live". I'm sure you're trying to build your channel so I wanted to make you aware of that. I found it by putting in the name of your video from my TV. I've subscribed and look forward to your future videos!!
The best tutorial on this process!!! Thanks so much.
Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful:)

@saragerend Oh, that's great to know. Thank you so much. Hope you have a great evening and week to come. 💖
Do you use straight bleach in the spray bottle or do you dilute with water?
I use straight bleach, but I have heard of others using half and half.
