Arch Text To Make A Classic T Shirt Design in Inkscape

In this tutorial we'll be going over how to arch text in Inkscape to create this classic t shirt design that can be exported and uploaded to a print-on-demand service of your choosing.

To arch the text we'll be using the Envelope Deformation path effect, but we'll need to adjust its settings to get the desired result.
