A You Design It, we offer three different printing processes. They can be separated between digital T-shirt printing, custom screen printing, and embroidery. If you are looking for less than six pieces we offer digital T-shirt printing. If you are interested in custom t-shirt screen printing we have one of the lowest minimums in the industry with just six pieces. And again with custom embroidery, we have some of the lowest minimums in the industry with just 12 pieces.

The moral of the story is, there is no job too big or too small at You Design It.

The Junior ROTC program at Westland high school contacted us recently to create some custom T-shirts for their ROTC program. They already had a design in mind, and send us a picture of something that they wanted it to be similar to. They also provided us with a list of names and dates for the back of the custom T-shirts and explained how they wanted it to look. After giving them a quote it took a very short time for them to respond and tell us that was exactly what they were looking for. We put the custom artwork together, printed it on the shirts and sent them on their way:

This wasn’t our first printed military shirts project and it won’t be our last. We’d like to salute the Westland High School Air Force Junior ROTC and thank them for their order.

One of our earliest posts on the You Design It blog was an informational about all over T-shirt printing. We have received many phone calls, a lot of e-mails, and quite a few comments regarding the subject. One of those contacts was a vendor that is able to not only print over the seams, but also has a printing area capable of 21″ x 24″. This is much larger than the typical 12″ x 14″ size screen that we are used to working with.

It wasn’t long after they first contacted us that we were already able to test out our first job. Our customer wanted a lower off centered front print and an oversized back print that would reach from seam to seam. The T-shirt printing came out beautifully, and here’s the picture to prove it:

One of the best features about us offering oversized printing capabilities is that we only need a minimum of 72 versus the industry standard of 144 to 288. We look forward to printing a whole lot more of these in the future and hope your custom T-shirt project is next.

We are constantly in our artwork programs working on custom t shirt designs. Sometimes it feels like that is all that we do. Occasionally we get the opportunity to create new T-shirt templates that can be reused by our customers. Most times when we are creating these custom designs, we use our own logo or our name. We would like to share these with you guys as an example of the things that we can do for your next custom T-shirt project.

Here is a custom T-shirt design that we recently created:

Just give us a call or an e-mail if you have a special T-shirt design that you need us to create. We will be glad to help!

The Globe Girls soccer team recently passed the ball to You Design It to print custom hoodies for their upcoming season. Like many times before, they had already created a really cool hoodie design, and they just needed us to make it happen. Here is a picture of their custom soccer hoodies:

Hopefully they will be bending it like Beckham and taking their soccer league by storm. One thing is for sure, their custom printed hoodies will not only keep them warm, but will keep them looking good out on the field.

For every printed color on your T-shirts there is a subsequent screen used in the screen printing process.The actual screen used for T-shirt screen printing is really a piece of finely woven polyester stretched over a frame of aluminum or wood. These screens have the design for that color ink burned onto them to allow the ink to pass through to the T-shirt. The ink is pressed through the screen with a squeegee. Here is a picture of a screen for custom printed t shirts:

A typical screen printing press can have anywhere from four screens all the way to 16 screens attached to them.Here is a picture of what a t-shirt screen printing press looks like:

Most times when you’re getting a quote for custom T-shirts there will be additional fees for screens and screen set-up. However, at You Design It, we give you all-inclusive pricing so that you don’t have to deal with hidden fees and charges.
