Yesterday the textile vinyl that I ordered to make the letters on Orchid&#8217;s catsuit arrived home and I am very happy.<\/p>\n<p>I had heard about this product through <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yayahan.com\/portfolio\/costumes\/sheryl-nome-oiran-garb-macross-frontier\">Yaya Han<\/a> and had always wanted to try it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sanlianprint.com\/UploadFiles\/ProImage\/SL-K.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sanlianprint.com\/UploadFiles\/ProImage\/SL-K.jpg\" height=\"320\" width=\"317\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Heat transfer vinyl is a very easy-to-use material with which very clean finishes are achieved. Without seams, loose edges or embossing (unless you buy the embossed one), you could say that it blends with the fabric. I bought my 1m roll, (the minimum you can order) at <a href=\"http:\/\/vinilotextil.com\/\">vinyltextil.com<\/a> , it arrived at my house in a couple of days and it has worked perfectly for me.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I ordered two types of vinyl, one normal in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vinilotextil.com\/premium\/386-poliflex-419-amarillo-limon.html\"> lemon yellow<\/a> and another elastic in a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vinilotextil.com\/siser-ps-stretch\/1039-siser-ps-stretch-amarillo.html\">darker yellow <\/a> .&nbsp;In the end, after doing some tests, I used lemon yellow because the color is practically the same as the spandex that I used in the catsuit and because it has just the right elasticity so that it doesn&#8217;t get damaged when I put it on. Maybe it&#8217;s even better that it&#8217;s not elastic because this way the text doesn&#8217;t get deformed when I&#8217;m wearing it.<\/p>\n<p>I was also a little afraid that the zentai fabric would be ruined because lam\u00e9 lycra is not a fabric that irons well, but I haven&#8217;t had any kind of problem either. Let&#8217;s go step by step!<\/p>\n<p>First I made a template, taking the measurement from under the armpit to the waist, which is what they occupy in the original model.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.17.03-1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.17.03-1.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-1363\" height=\"320\" width=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.17.03-1.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.17.03-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.17.03-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.17.03-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I cut them out and transferred them to the vinyl, drawing their outline on the protective plastic on the front of the sheet.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.29.21-1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0414.29.21-1.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-1365\" height=\"320\" width=\"240\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I made two sets of letters.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0415.02.13.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nebulaluben.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/2014-06-0415.02.13.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-1366\" height=\"320\" width=\"240\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I placed the catsuit on the ironing board as stretched as possible (but not overstretched) and placed the letters lining up with the side seam.
