    I made each of the kids a cute 70s-style I Love Pizza apron using my Silhouette Cameo and flocked heat transfer vinyl.

    Use the Silhouette software to design your custom iron on transfer, just as you would for any project. But before cutting, make sure to mirror your image.

    And when you load your heat transfer vinyl into the machine, make sure you load it shiny side down and adjust the blade and settings in the software accordingly.

    Silhouette has a great online tutorial for using heat transfer vinyl. In my experience, I’ve found that heat and pressure are key to making the design stick to your fabric. And patience. An iron works, but I think a heat press would work even better.

    I’ve made quite a few custom iron-on t-shirts over the years using my Silhouette Cameo. This one I made for Jackson several years ago during his dinosaur phase is one of my favorites.
