Over-the-Seam Printing

This type of printing effectively expands the available canvas for showcasing artwork by extending designs across seams. This allows designers to create larger, more intricate designs that cover a significant portion of the garment. When screen printing over uneven surfaces like seams, imperfections are common. To minimize these, use darker ink on lighter fabrics and design with vintage or distressed elements that camouflage minor irregularities.

Caring for over-the-seam printed apparel is essential to maintain the integrity and longevity of the prints.
