Have we found Steve F's solution yet? I'm now experiencing the puckering on the 
Port Authority T-Shirt. Using the Dakota Collect. Ying/Yang Symbol with writing 
on top and underneath. I decreased the density and got it to sew out almost 
completely flat, then washed and dried and now puckered and puffy. If the 
density is decreased more, then there won't be enough coverage and it's not 
just the area around the symbol that puffs, all around the letters, too. I've 
hooped it nice and drum tight. Using that soft cut away backing that won't show 
through the white shirt. But the design puckered before washing before reducing 
density. The fill stitches are at an angle and the writing is in the small cp 
block. Would love to get this right after spending so many hours on the redo of 
the design, not to mention having sewn out 20 shirts before washing one and 
finding the puckering reappearing. It's getting personal now. I want to conquer 
this and won't settle for putting out puckering prod
 uct!  Sorry about the alliteration, got a little carried away in my dilarium!  
Thanks in Advance. Genie Z
