Boys and Girls,

Any ideas where I can get iron on lettering? I have tried places like John Lewis and haven't had any luck. I know there are a few people online, but with the way the post is, its not going to happen as I need it by Friday.

Any ideas would be very welcome smile

Google/Yell for t-shirt printers and/or local print shops. They'll do a quicker, cheaper and better job than trying to iron on individual letters yourself.

Staples transfer paper.

I use it each year for le mans shirts.
About a tenner for 8 sheets from memory.

Print out what you want- make sure you mirror it prior to printing.

Thanks for your help. I need it specifically for my GF's running for next weeks Dublin Marathon. A few t-shirt shops said they can print to it, but "its at my risk" if it goes wrong.

I have just dug one from 5 years ago.

It's fine.

For the love if god remember to mirror the image. And do a practise on a piece of plain paper first!

That's the stuff.

Dead easy.

If it is going on a running vest, I would be inclined to cut around the letter closely though.

A full a4 sheet may get a bit sweaty??

Good luck
(both vest and running!)
