REGISTERED IMAGED FABRIC TRANSFER

摘要

Exemplary methods of making an applique are disclosed. An exemplary method includes forming a graphic and at least one registration mark on a display side of a fabric layer. An adhesive may be applied to a non-display side of the fabric layer, and a backing carrier may be applied to the adhesive. The methods may further include cutting through the fabric layer and the adhesive, but not the backing carrier, using a cutting tool that is responsive to the at least one registration mark. Exemplary methods may also include applying a topside carrier to the display side of the fabric layer. A bond between the topside carrier and the fabric layer may be stronger than a bond between the backing carrier and the fabric layer.
