This insures that the correctly sized design is with the right shirt size. You can always cut then press each shirt to avoid any mix ups. Prior to pressing, fold your shirt in half and press or iron it.
This removes any moisture that it may have and also creates a crease you can use for centering the design on the shirt. Always measure your placement prior to pressing.

Again, you want your design to consistently look the same on each shirt you make, regardless of size difference. We hope this tutorial was able to help you with some of the questions you had regarding proper design sizing for various shirt sizes. If you are using the Silhouette Studio, there are a few extra steps to create mock-ups, but it is still easy.
The first thing you need to do is to use an image of the product you are designing. For the sake of this tutorial, we will use a shirt. Find an image of a shirt that you have permission to use.
Right click and copy the image. Then go into your Silhouette Studio and paste the image onto your mat. You can also save the image to your computer and upload it into Silhouette Studio. Once you have your template image added to your mat , bring your design in front of the image. You then resize your image and get your placement correct.
Lastly, take a screen shot and you have a mock-up ready to send to your customer for final approval. Very, very helpful. User friendly, as well as informative. Rozzy Crafts has decided to focus on crafts education and community, rather than selling craft materials.

Extend the right sleeve out to the side and smooth it out as much as possible. Start the tape measure at the middle of the yoke, just below the collar band and measure out to the seam where the yoke attaches to the sleeve. Place a finger on the measuring tape at the seam where the yoke attaches to the sleeve to keep it in place, and then pull the tape measure taut to the end edge of the cuff on the sleeve.
