My large back designs on sweats and jackets I do this way...
(I have a 4 color teeshirt screenprinting 'octopus', so I use one of the shirt
platens for a 'counter')
I take the largest piece of backing, and lightly spray with adhesive.
Slide this inside the sweatshirt and press down firmly-now the backing is in
place.
Then I put the shirt in place on the platen as though I am going to screen
print it right there-now it is aligned to the board perfectly. I can slide the
inside hoop up the platen, align it easily side to side, then press down the
top hoop. If there might be alignment issues, before I put either hoop in place
we take a straightedge and seamstress chalk and make a few 'centerline' marks.
We are looking for a hoopmaster or all-in-one to use for smaller items and
such, in case someone is getting rid of one!
