Printed fabric - I need your help

My sister has a great idea for a small business but to make it work she needs her design printed on to fabric in order for her to make the things she wants to make.

As there are so many crafters on here I wondered if any of you could help - She's (we've) googled loads but can't find what she's after:confused: ....can anybody point her in the right direction please MTIA

  • how much fabric does she need? if its just a small amount she could maybe do it herself, get the design/logo printed onto a special sheet, i think they call it image transfer paper (sorry cant remember the correct term, but i looked it up a while ago and loads of companies do it, ) and then the sheet transfer can be ironed on, or if its something for a much larger quantity i would suggest contacting a screen printers, or even trying a company that prints t shirts etc, they might be willing to do it if you supply the material etc.
    totally a tog!:D

    is this something she will need to buy
    in rolls ? Or smaller pieces ?

    If this were me as a starting point
    I would probably give these a ring

    explain what it is your after and that you
    trying to find someone who can print fabric
    for you.I think that as they are wholesale
    fabric suppliers to shops,companies,industry etc
    They supply just about every type of fabric
    & accessories going
    they may well have customers who do this
    type of thing and be able to give you some
    numbers to ring.Its worth a try
