Design Placement Calculator
A design that’s an inch too big or an inch too high reads as homemade. Pick your blank for the recommended max width and how far below the collar the top should sit — the standards shops use to get it centered and straight the first time.
Blank / garment
Recommended placement — Adult tee (full front)
Max design width
11″
Top of design
3–3.5" below the collar
10–11" reads bold; 8" is a safer, classic look. Center on the chest, not the hem. Fold the blank in half to find the vertical center line, mark it with heat-safe tape, and measure down from the collar seam — not the shoulders.
