Consider using a sewing machine set on satin stitch. The satin stitch could be used to create a border around the entire picture. Or use the sewing machine set on a zig-zag stitch. This stitch could also be done by hand. Karen

Can you fix an iron on transfer that's peeling off of a t-shirt?

RE: Fixing a Peeling Iron-on Transfer
Use fusible webbing. Pellon works the best. This is used to adhere fabric to fabric. The instructions are on the Pellon. Hope this works for you.
Put a sheet of waxed paper over the top and heat iron to a low setting. Iron the waxed paper lightly. Keep checking every couple of seconds until the iron on is adhered. It doesn't take long for it to re-adhere. Make sure when washing the garment or what it is on that it doesn't go into the dryer. Sometimes dryers are just a bit too hot for iron ons and the glue comes unstuck.
