I thought this could be classed as graphics for print!
Basically in my frustration at the lack of tshirts/hoodys/dresses with designs i like i am thinking of doing some designs for a few of my own for myself, so they would be one offs, unless of course people asked where i got it from as they wanted one...
Back in my school days i did product design with textiles (didn't touch 'graphic design' till i went to uni!) so i am wanting to explore this area of design again as a personal experiment. I am wanting to involve not only printed graphics, but i am also handy with needles, threads, beads, ribbons, felting etc etc...
I would like to know:
What experience have people had with getting your own designs onto clothes?
Is there any important information i need to consider before i get stuck into this?
Do you have any reccomendations of places that provide quality clothing and quality printing?
What printing techniques are available now?
Just some inspirational direction would be welcomed for this personal experimental work
