How will the tshirt be printed?
Are the images you're working from at a high enough quality to print? This generally means working at LEAST at 300DPI, could be more or less depending on the output type.
What color mode are you working in? Does it match the color mode of the output? If you're going to print these at home for like iron on transfers, work in RGB... otherwise you need to talk to the people that will be doing the output and see what kind of process they need from you. Prepping files for say, screen-printing, can sometimes be tricky.
Making text crisp in Photoshop for output is usually troublesome if you are doing professional printing. I would probably do the objects in Photoshop and compile in something like Illustrator if you will be doing a professionally printed tshirt. You would, again, need to talk to the service bureau about that to see what their requirements are.
