great quality transfer paper
The fabric transfer paper comes with all the needed instruction to get started. I really like that the seller added an additional guided instruction on top of the instruction already included on the transfer paper sealed package when delivered. I do not have any heat press machine at home but I do have the steam iron at home which is also compatible with this transfer paper. Do take note that this transfer paper only works with inkjet printer and other types like toner printer will not work and even destroy the print. I have an Epson 2720 which is an inkjet printer and compatible with the transfer paper. I first adjusted the print quality of the printer, invert the image to be printer and make a test print. Also take note to put the right side of the paper. I have attached the photo of my test print and so far it looks good. I did got a hard time transferring it using my iron since I need to do it several time and make sure to be very careful not to damage the print have the ink totally stick / dry on the fabric before removing the backing. I washed it after a day with washing machine and still looks good, so far nothing faded or scratched off. Will buy again.

Just like regular old iron on vinyl
These are prohibitively expensive to use if your printer ink costs anything near what mine does. They are just like vinyl iron-on patches so they feel like plastic and are hot to wear for instance if you put a large one on the front of a t-shirt. The directions were lengthy but well written. I got some browning on the white one and it looks like maybe a little on the dark one. It's some of the background color seeping through as well, I'm sure. All-in-all, I don't think I would use these again.

    Fabric transfer paper - it does work
    I like this paper because it is made if my inkjet printer. I am not that crafty but was able to do a pretty good job. I think someone with the right skills would do a great job with this transfer paper. I will do a couple more soon and let you know my results if possible.

    Nice transfers
    These fabric transfers are true to color and easy to use. They fit your standard printer. The ones for white or light fabric worked better for me. I didn't have much success with the one for dark fabric. I may just need a better iron. They come with very clear instructions. I am making a quilt and am using pictures of my grandson for the quilting squares. This is a good choice for at home projects and making memories the way you like. Without the extra expense and in the comfort of your own home. The colors transfer to the fabric very well. I haven't washed any because I still have several squares to make. I will recommed to friends and family if they are interested in doing any projects that they want to personalize. Quick, easy and not to expensive. Just have a good iron.

    Would be a fun party activity!
    This is a full set of printable heat transfers for dark and light fabrics. The directions are clear, written on the package, with simple version on the back of each page. The pages are printed with different colors for the dark fabric and light fabric transfers. THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE DIFFERENT FOR THE DARK AND LIGHT TRANSFERS! You need an inkjet printer full of ink (mine ran low on my fox print and the fading was noticeable). It is easy to do. It is very well adapted to multi color designs and photos. If I were doing lettering only, I would stick to colored vinyl, because you can feel the vinyl in the open spaces with this. I think it would be great at a kids party, they could draw colorful pictures, or pose as groups in fun positions and you could snap a photo and print them on this paper and transfer to their shirts. If you set your printer right it can reverse the image for you when printing so any words aren't backwards. It takes a minute or so to iron on your T-shirt. USE LOTS OF PRESSURE! A towel on the floor or table or board works well. Be sure to carefully cut off any excess at the edge of your printing. It makes the image look much better if no edges of white are showing. This was fun and easy and I thought the results were good. I haven't had a chance to launder them yet, I will update when I do.

    Good when used correctly
    I was impressed with the detailed FAQ included with the fabric transfer. It included 12 pages of advice and troubleshooting. I think these heat transfers are nice, but you really do have to follow the instructions precisely. It can be a big disappointment when you make a small mistake and have wasted ink and a transfer paper. Overall I would recommend these, but know you might make a mistake or two before you get it perfect.

    Easy to Use
    These fabric transfers were much easier to use than I expected. They come with 15 transfers, 10 of which are for white fabric and 5 are for dark fabric. You print an image from your computer right onto the transfer paper with an ink jet printer and follow the step by step procedures included with the kit to iron it onto your fabric. The white and dark have different directions so be sure to use the correct paper and method depending on your fabric color. The white transfer papers are identified with red lettering and instructions and the dark fabric transfers are printed in blue instructions. It was a bit more time consuming than I had anticipated but overall it was pretty easy to use and seems to work well.

    Great quality...
    The sheets appear to be of very good quality. Comes with instructions for use on light and dark fabrics, along with care instructions. Can't wait to try these out!

    Good product!
    Overall, I am pretty happy with the Pen + Gear white and dark fabric transfer paper. It comes with 15 sheets – 10 sheets for white fabric transfers and 5 sheets for dark fabric transfers. I love that these are 8.5 x 11 and fit right in my standard printer! These are so easy to use – you just design what you want on the transfer, print it and put it on your fabric. It doesn't take very long to do and it's easy to follow the instructions. I love that this is an at-home option for making customized items right from your own computer and printer! I feel like the colors are pretty true to what I'd see on a regular printed sheet, and it looks great on the fabric as well. Even after applying the transfer to the fabric, and having washed it, I still think it looks pretty great! I made sure the colors I used were a bit bolder and brighter than I would really want them, and I think that helped make the transfer coloring look good to me! If the colors are too light, I would think it wouldn't show up as well on either the white or dark fabrics. I would definitely recommend this to anyone that wants to try to do their own designs for fabrics.

    Easy and Cute!
    This transfer paper is so easy to use. It comes with very clear instructions inside the package which includes a set for dark clothing and a set of transfer paper for Light clothing. I have only used one for dark clothing and made my seven-year-old daughter a shirt with Billie Eilish on it. She loved it. The instructions are very clear, it was easy and so quick to do this project. I haven't tried washing the T-shirt since I just made it, but it looks like it will hold the wash. Now my daughter wants me to make her so many things with the transfer paper that she can wear! The instructions do specify that you leave a tab so that you can peel the sheet from the backing. Make sure you do this, if you don't you might mess up your picture when trying to peel the sheet off. I really loved this! So east and cute!
