Hi,
I'm looking for some nice polyester fabrics for sublimation. I've got tailoress available and would like to design some smart dresses, long sleeve t-shirts ect.
I know there's a lot of online suppliers but you can't really see fabric quality of photo. Maybe anybody could recommend ??

Hi Ian,
I did try one yesterday. Obviously they've assured me it's polyester but when I've tried to sublimate on it... just a "ghost" image :/

but... maybe I'll try different shop :)

Are you sure you're printing onto the right side of the paper?

hi Kaz,
Yes I'm sure. I've placed a greaseproof paper under a fabric and all ink landed over there :) It just wasn't polyester and didn't absorbed ink
