I've just had an enquiry for some t shirts but as I have never done any before, can you recommend which ones to get as it's quite confusing? They will be for ladies of varying sizes.

For sublimation they need to be polyester.

Yes, I've seen that. Can you recommend a supplier? I don't want to go overboard on price, but on the other hand, I do want reasonable quality.

I'm afraid sublimation t shirts aren't cheap - but you do get what you pay for.
Look in the suppliers section on this forum for suppliers - BMS, Coralgraph, Listawood, Xpres, nearly all the suppliers of sublimation blanks sell sub t shirts.

you could always get cotton shirts and try the Yolo Softstrech, may be worth you getting a sample from them so that you can see the results.

The subli ink and paper that you use for making mugs can you use that for t-shirts also?

Yep I hink its a really good alternative to using subli shirts (which personally I don't like but if i have to use them i will only use the vapour shirts)
