Erich Campbell's fleurde-lis design adds value via
rhinestones and the appearance
of hand embroidery.

ing, combined three elements to create his
"Mount Rainier" design (see Figure 3).
"We used appliqué, [direct-to-garment
printing] and embroidery to accomplish this
unique contest piece," he explains. "We printed the photo and the dark green border on
a canvas bag material with a Brother GT-3
direct-to-garment printer. There is only one
piece of appliqué. Then, we made a placement line for the printed canvas, stopped
the machine, placed the already-cut piece
of fabric and secured it with a zigzag line,
and then satin-stitch top stitching. Finally, we embroidered the trees and some grass
in polyester embroidery thread for a threedimensional look."
This design was done on a sweat shirt.

When Erich Campbell was challenged with
decorating a lightweight ladies' T-shirt
without adding excess bulk, he combined heatapplied rhinestones and low-stitch-count
embroidery. His resulting fleur-de-lis shirt (see
Figure 4) is embellished with a combination
of light-density embroidery and an overlaid,
stock rhinestone fleur-de-lis design.
When asked about pricing this shirt, considering the added value of rhinestones and
the appearance of hand embroidery, he explains it requires considering the labor needed
to hoop and embroider the piece, as well as
align and heat press the rhinestones.
"It would be considerably more expensive
than the average garment," he says. "However, the low stitch count and the pre-made
transfers would speed the process and make
the end result more affordable for both the
decorator and the end user. The design itself,
due to using built-in contour-filling tools,
did not take long to digitize, and the use of
a commodity rhinestone transfer made the
costs much more reasonable than one might
expect for a multimedia piece."
Another one of Campbell's multimedia
designs, "Glitter-Flake Chili," was created as
a proof of concept for combining sublimated
prints with embroidery designs to create a
full-color appliqué treatment with the least
