Lisa - You are such a talented person. Thank you for explaining sublimation. There is so much technology out there it boggles your mind. At least mine. Lol. I think for me, the best route would be to have someone else do it. Thank you for the video. God bless you and yours.
OMG!! Where are you? I will love to have you hold my hand while walking through this, it is making me nervous and excited at this same time. Your video is a great educational tutorial. I need to get and find my courage to do this💕 love sewing and making clothes; small projects. I have 5 machines to work with💕
My daughter has been doing hoodies, jackets, mugs, etc. with her sublimation / printer for a year or so now. I have considered getting a printer to do it but might just hire her to do my printing for me to start. I love the idea of using sheets. Such a great savings. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Lisa. Can't wait to see your sublimation videos. I had message you last week regarding what to print pictures on. I will be making several memorial quilts for family members. So this may be a better way to go rather than the June Taylor sheets. I appreciate all your help
I'm so glad I ran across you, I was wondering if you could do something like this on cotton hoodies? I was thinking cut to size then sew or glue on to the hoodie.
It can be, but it will wash out. It can be a cotton/poly blend...but will fade depending on the amount of poly in the fabric. The higher % of poly the better. The tag sticking out is one of my labels that I made :)
Being 100% honest...I liked each of the sheets equally, however I need to do an updated video as I've started using white poplin fabric for sublimation and I love it 100 times more :)
Hi I just ant to mak a quilt but I hi k I should leave that to the professional. How do I contact you about making a photo quilt? I don’t have facebook. Do you hav a website? Oh hank you
I made my granddaughter a photo memory quilt for her high school graduation. I wish I would of seen your videos before I did hers. I have watched all 5 of your videos on photo quilts. Very informative. I used 100% polyester. It turned out ok, but after watching your videos, I’m going to make her a duplicate one using your suggestions. Do you sublimate directly onto the microfiber sheets? Do you use an interfacing behind the microfiber before sublimating? Or, do you use the microfiber sheet as the backing fabric for your quilt? Thank you for answering my questions.
Thank you for the video..I am new to sublimation and wanted to offer this to my clients as a service. What stabilizer do you like to use for the tshirt quilts and the sheet? Can you tell me how well they Quilt up? Does it run or split with a longarm needle going thru it?
Hello :) My favorite interfacing to use is the Pellon P44f. I have not yet quilted these particular sheets yet....however....a few years back I made a quilt for the hubby and he wanted a microfiber sheet as the back....it quilted wonderfully, and it's so soft and snuggly and holding up great to everyday use. I'm hoping these sheets hold up the same way
Lisa, Thank you for this video. What interfacing did you use on the sheets to stabilize? I have a sublimation printer and heat press. I have a quilt to do that has almost 100 photos.
Sublimation shirt printing is a specific process of printing that first involves printing onto a special sheet of paper, then transferring that image onto another material (usually polyester or a polyester mix). The ink is then heated until it disintegrates into the fabric.

Love this! Would love to see your process beginning to end. Thank you for the tutorial
Love the pictures. So happy that worked out for you with the sheets.

Thank you for sharing! I can't wait for the video on the process you used to create those beauties.
Yes would love to see how due a quilt start to finish
So excited to see this video because I already do sublimation and I have a few people asking about photo quilts.
Love this idea! Thanks
You are so welcome!
Thanks for the information. Love your rugs!!
You are so welcome!
Thank you Lisa! So glad the test results turned out good, so now I have to look into getting me a Epson printer to.🤗
Love this!!! Thank you so much!!

sounds like your daughter stays busy, that is AWESOME. You are so welcome :)
I had a baby blanket made like that. Was very pleased.
that's so good to know, thanks!

you are so welcome Pamela!
Love the idea of outsourcing to Etsy!
Thank you very much for your knowledge & skills to the masses. Peace
I have a lot of work to do, you're making my journey easier & will not be forgotten.
How do I print on the fabric ? I’ve watched your video and would love to see how to do this thank you
Hi Lisa. How did you quilt around or over the photos? And how big was the space between your quilting? Thank you.
How is sublimation on a tight weave cotton ticking?
I'm so glad I ran across you, I was wondering if you could do something like this on cotton hoodies? I was thinking cut to size then sew or glue on to the hoodie.
You could make them then sew to the hoodie. You wouldn't be able to sublimate directly on a cotton hoodie though
Can sublimation be printed on cotton?
And what is the little tag sticking out?
It can be, but it will wash out. It can be a cotton/poly blend...but will fade depending on the amount of poly in the fabric. The higher % of poly the better. The tag sticking out is one of my labels that I made :)
@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead
One day will you show in one of your videos the tag and how you made it? I am intrigued. 😊
Thank you so much for this video. Out of the three sheets you used, which one did you like the best?
Being 100% honest...I liked each of the sheets equally, however I need to do an updated video as I've started using white poplin fabric for sublimation and I love it 100 times more :)

@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead Thank you for replying so quickly. This is a huge learning curve for me.
Lisa, Another question for you- What temp and for how long did you use on the heat press? Thanks

Have you tried polyester fabric purchased from hobby lobby ? They have 100 percent polyester .
I have not tried that, the closest Hobby Lobby is about 2.5 hours away from me :)
Cali kings are roughly 102 inches wide by 112 inches long. If that helps Mrs. Lisa
that does help, thanks so much Chrissy!
