SKU MKT-Edge-to-Edge-Towel

Edge-to-edge printing is the premium option for artists, designers, and brands launching a product line. Unlike DTG or screen printing — which print within a bordered area — edge-to-edge covers the entire surface of the towel, from hem to hem. Your design is printed on a roll of cotton fabric, then cut, hemmed, and finished by hand. The result is a retail-ready product with a professional finish — the kind you’d expect to find in a boutique.

This is not a quick-turn service. Production takes 3–5 weeks after proof approval, and the minimum order is 25 towels per design. If you're building a collection to sell, this is the right service. Not sure about quality yet? Order samples first — same process, same fabric, same finish — so you can see exactly what your customers will receive before committing to a full run.

The Process

How Edge-to-Edge Printing Works

1
Place your order & submit artwork
After ordering, upload your file directly on this page or email it to us. We accept PDF, PNG, AI, and EPS. Files should be at actual print size, 300 DPI, RGB/sRGB color space. See size requirements below.
2
We send a virtual proof for approval
Before production begins, we'll send a digital mockup for your review and confirmation. Production does not start until you approve the proof. Once approved, the order is final — no changes or cancellations.
3
Printed on fabric roll, then cut & hemmed by hand
Your design is printed onto a large roll of 100% cotton flour sack fabric using state-of-the-art printing technology. The printed fabric is then precisely cut to size, hemmed on all four sides, and steam-ironed to a professional finish.
4
Packed & shipped within 3–5 weeks
Your finished towels are folded, packed, and shipped within 3–5 weeks of proof approval. Expedited shipping is available at checkout if you need them faster once production is complete.

Artwork Requirements

File Specs & Bleed Sizes

Submit your file at actual print size + bleed — slightly larger than the finished towel to account for the hem fold. This ensures your design reaches all the way to the edge with no unprinted strip along the border.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Edge-to-Edge Printing

The extra area is called a bleed. When the fabric is folded and hemmed, a small strip along each edge gets tucked into the seam. If your file only covers the exact finished size, you risk a thin unprinted line showing along the hem. Submitting a file with bleed — 1 inch larger on each side — ensures your design fills the towel completely, edge to edge, with no gaps.

Production takes 3–5 weeks after proof approval.

Tea towels are produced using an edge-to-edge printing process. Your design is printed on a full roll of fabric, then the fabric is cut and stitched into finished tea towels.

We maintain alignment accuracy within ±0.5 inches, which works well for most designs. However, due to natural fabric movement during cutting and stitching, perfect pattern alignment across seams cannot be guaranteed — especially for tight geometric or grid-based patterns. We recommend designing with this tolerance in mind, or choosing organic patterns (botanicals, abstract, painterly) that are more forgiving at the seam.
Yes — the 25-piece minimum applies per design. So you could order 25 of Design A and 25 of Design B in a single order. Each design goes through the same proof approval process separately before production begins.
No — all custom printing orders are final sale and non-refundable. Full payment and proof approval are required before production begins. Once you approve the proof, we cannot make design changes, cancel the order, or issue a refund. Please review your proof carefully before approving. If you're unsure about color or quality, we strongly recommend ordering samples first.
Edge-to-edge printing covers the entire towel surface with no unprinted borders — the design runs all the way to the hem on every side. The fabric, finish, and construction are also different: your towel is cut and hemmed from a printed fabric roll, resulting in a fully finished retail product. DTG printing is done on pre-made towels using a different machine and process, so the output is not directly comparable. If you want to see exactly what your edge-to-edge towels will look, feel, and wash like before committing to a full run, order samples — they go through the identical production process. See sample pricing above →
Important: Custom orders are final sale. Production begins only after full payment and proof approval. Once approved, we cannot alter the design, cancel the order, or issue a refund. By placing your order, you acknowledge and agree to these terms. Not sure about print quality yet? Order samples first →
