I used my Cricut (Maker 3) to print (in washable marker) an embroidery pattern onto fabric.
I had the pattern as a pdf.
I used Inkscape to trace it and remove the background – I am a beginner with Inkscape. I am googling every time I try to do something.
Then I uploaded it to design space, and selected pen.
It worked really well – definitely something I will do again (maybe with a finer pen?)

One of the things I wanted to be able to do with my Cricut was to cut fabric.
I ordered the rotary blade, read some blogs and had a go.
I used some of the shapes in design space, and did a basic cut. I wanted to test the process.
I starched the fabric and it worked really well. I thought it hadn’t cut at all, but as I pealed off the fabric, the shapes were left behind.
Now I have applique projects on my mind.
