We had the same idea! You used fabric. I used paint. So fun!
ReplyDeleteYou are just throwing things out left and right here. I have a lot of catching up to do. Do you order your vinyl online?? I about ordered some yesterday, but then I backed out. I am such a tight wad and don't to spend a penny on shipping! I will break down soon and finally get myself some.
I tried this one, and it turned out SO cute! Thanks for always posting your directions! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm having some problems with the fabric tearing a little when the cricut is cutting. Do you have any suggestions?

Gloria - I would make sure you have a new blade, adjust and try out a few different blade depths and maybe increase the pressure a little. Also, what kind of fabric are you using? Mine was a very thin, starched cotton weave. I bet the starch helped to keep it in place.
ReplyDeleteI'm so honored that you are doing this project! Thank you! Have fun - if you have any more questions, let me know.
Okay, got the settings right!! It is cutting good now. Now one more question. I've made several and as I was going back through them a few of the pieces came off. I'm wondering if my iron is not hot enough? I usually use the wool setting (very low). Any suggestions??
ReplyDeleteGloria - that is definitely a possibility. Try increasing the heat a little, especially if the fabric is a little thick. And make sure you have an equal or better quality of the Heat n Bond.
ReplyDeleteMy sister-in-law created a variation of this project by cutting and securing a stencil to the fabric an then using fabric paint to fill in the stenciled design. You could use vinyl as a self-adhesive stencil.
These are so cute! Which cartridge(s) did you use?
