Re: [amayausers] backing questionRoland,
Thanks for the quick repsonse!
Do you use 3 oz. for mostly sweatshirts?
I have the 2 oz. 8 x 8 sheets and I will occassionally double that up on items.
Backing can be tricky sometimes. Trial & error.

  Hi Luann-
  we use 3 oz. cutaway on the back-it is softer than tear away.
  also a layer of solvy on the front-holds the lettering better for detail. I 
also think the solvy tends to let the needles 'slide' easier-we notice a lot 
less thread or bobbin breaks. I think our MT is 8 on most of the sweats-7 on 
the 6 oz., 10 on the premium 11+ oz-the real 'high loft' sweater jackets.

    Good mroning all!

    Quick question. I just finished doing set up on a design for a sweatshirt 
front.
    Finished size is 8 x 9 inches.
    Mostly text...1/2 inch tall Athlethic Flair.
    Two states...Solid fills about 2 inches high.
    What would anyone suggest for backing? Cut away or tear away?

    Thanks..
