Miranda, what happened with the shirt? I usually use a clear heat-away topper on mine, but if it's the least bit stretchy (like a t-shirt) I use an iron-on cutaway mesh. I've done them without the topper, but always with the mesh and they've come out great. Sometimes, it could be that the design is just too dense for the shirt material (or just too dense period.) Depends on where you get the design and how much of it there is.
LOL!!!!!! It was when I was first learning to use the machine. I used tear away stabilizer on the back, and that was all. I haven't tried a T-shirt project since. I would like to, but I haven't been at the machine much. I ended up with a hole in the shirt. This was also when I was having trouble with the thread "balling-up", so it might not have been all my fault. (we'll stick to that...not my fault!: :D LOL!
