STEP ONE:

To start this project, open up my project above. Resize the image to fit your T-shirt the images to fit your T-shirts if needed.


STEP TWO:

Next head to the make it screen, make sure that you mirror the mats by clicking the mirror button. This is important, as you always cut into the back of Iron-on vinyl.


STEP THREE:

Choose the material you are going to cut to be either foil or everyday Iron-on depending on which mat you are cutting first,. Then add a sheet of iron-on face down onto the mat. Load the mat into the machine and start cutting. Repeat for both sheets of Iron-on.

STEP FIVE:

Once the machine has finished cutting, take the iron-on sheet off of the mat. Use a pair of scissors to cut around your cut image so that you can save the uncut vinyl for another project. Use your weeding tool to help you remove all of the vinyl pieces you don’t want, leaving behind your image.


STEP SIX:

Check the Easy Press heat guide to get the best result for the material you are pressing onto, then heat up your Easy Press to the correct temperature. Lay your t-shirt down on top of the Easy Press mat, making sure you lay it flat without any creases. Lay your weeded vinyl design down onto your t-shirt, with the clear carrier on top.


First press the red layer then once that is pressed, remove the carrier sheet. Then place the green layer onto the t-shirt, cover everything with the carrier from the red layer to protect it.

Press a second time, once pressed and cooled remove both carriers to reveal your finished T-shirt.


Repeat to complete your matching pair!
