How to Apply an Iron On Transfer to a Garment

In today's 'Sewing School' lesson, Sewing school, I've got a few tips for how to apply an iron on transfer to a garment. This is such a great way of embellishing an outfit. You will need:
- A transfer in a design of your choice: amzn.to/2MdZcWr
- An item of clothing. I used a plain cotton dress - you could also use a tee-shirt or jacket.
- Iron
- Ironing board
- Parchment paper/baking paper to protect face of iron: amzn.to/2On7tKi
Have fun!

That's great. Thanks for showing us how to do transfers. It's made me confident elto do my daughters school leavers shirt!

[@SuperLadyByron]

I just followed these instructions to the letter and manage to put a beautiful unicorn transfer on the back of my white shirt. Many thanks for your tutorial!

[@Whatdoesthisboxdo]

Thank you so much for this video! I made matching shirts for my daughter and I using iron-on transfers tonight, the first shirt went very smoothly, like other tutorials I'd seen. The second shirt went a little more like this and I was grateful I'd seen your method to help the transfer along and peeling it back carefully to ensure it's stuck ❤ it saved our shirts!

I had two patches that I couldn't decide between (indecisiveness Queen) and I had what I thought was a genius idea - glue it on a brooch! My mother clearly thought I was insane.

[@christinesmith7838]

Love it! Thank you very much.

[@karenguzzi748]

Lovely. You gave new life to that dress! Show us an update if you do the crystal embellishments. Macrame is coming back strong. Will you show something on it? Another thing that's made a comeback is punch needle. It goes quickly and is a great way to use up yarns and threads.

You can take the goth off the girl, but you can’t take it out of her soul 😭💜

[@user-yf8jj2qh2u]

So gorgeous! I also love your accent...South Africa? New Zealand?

[@AstarsPlace]

Thank you. This is a great way to update or up-cycle a garment. The accent is Kiwi. Warm regards Astar

🤣🇯🇲very entertaining

[@wandalewis-ot6jf]

Do u need to wash the sweatshirt before you apply

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi Wanda, I wash mine just to ensure it's free of manufacturer's chemicals/dirt etc. Give it a good iron to remove wrinkles & you are good to go. Hope this has helped? Warm regards Astar

Like your Name it Suits You.

[@ShaiyinoHicks]

how can i do this with rhinestones?

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi Shaiyiono, super super easy. Have a look at my tutorial on how to apply rhinestones or crystals to a vase. If you can't find it, all you do is apply a dab of gem-bond glue to work you desire to embellish. I use a fine paintbrush. Next, apply a little beeswax to a satay stick. Form wax into a tiny ball. Press the little balled wax end down on top of gem, then transfer down on top of glued spot. Works like magic. There are special tools you can buy, but this is how it's been done long before tools were invented. This way is cost effect. If you get stuck, direct message me to my @astarsplace instagam & I'll show you via video. Warm regards Astar
