Hi

Hi! Just a tip-when you check to make sure it cut, dont hit the release button, just hit cut so that way it will recut in the exact same place! -super thick faux leather, and chunky glitter work well using the extra heavy fabric setting.

Do you have explorer? I have maker and I noticed this when I try to cut thick material it did not cut deep.

Just a tip , move the white star wheels out of the way like the cricut suggested. Sometimes they will leave noticable indentations in your vinyl. P.s. I adore you! You're great. I came across your channel and have been binge watching your tutorials. I have explored other bag making tutorials and after about a minute , it's a NOPE! I love the way you explain things , camera set up on the sewing machine ect. I'm very hard to please unfortunately but you definitely have a winning formula

Hi Jess, I teach Cricut classes and work at Joann. Now I can refer customers to your video. Thank you! I also use my cricut for purse pals and overlays. I use the green mat. You should also check the blade and clean out the little pieces of fabric after each cut😁

I have a question! Am I the only one who finds their mat leaves a sticky residue on their vinyl, when placing it right side down?? I've tried googling extensively, but I can't find anyone else talking about having this issue! Am I doing something wrong 😅

Love the camera! Everything is so crystal clear. Thank you for showing us how to set up and use this! I have one and have had no idea how to do anything with it.

Hi Jess! I teach Cricut and I use my machines to cut the marine vinyl we sell at Joann that is also kind of thick. Can I suggest using the settings to cut bonded denim for thicker vinyls. I know it sounds odd but it works like a charm. If you have any questions let me know I’m here for you.

Thanks Vanessa that setting worked like a dream! You’re a star 🌟

I literally told my mother I wanted to find a way to bring my Air2 in to our sewing business yesterday. You opened the door with this testing vid! Thank you!

Yes please do more with the Cricut.

After 2 virtual sew dates today and sitting in my sewing room all day, I get to grab my hand quilting and watch you! Thanks for sharing your skills and time.

Omg thanks so much Jess, you looked like me a month ago trying to figure out what settings to use to cut vinyl for the Poppie Purse. The possibilities are endless on the Cricut. I also used it to cut sewing templates out of chipboard, worked great! Love love love your new camera💗💗

Jess, I 💖 your videos. Your new camera is terrific and that coral color on you looks fabulous. Thanks for all you do for us crafters.

This was awesome Jess , I appreciate you and watching you go through the unpacking and steps. I have thought about getting one but not sure which one and what all was involved. This really helped me and I decided to get one . Love all your tutorials!!

I’m so happy you’re doing this!!! I have a maker but it is so good intimidating, I never use it! But really would like to learn to appliqué (then sew) onto my bags I make!!! I’m so excited for you doing this!!! THANK YOU!!!!

You’re fun to watch. I’m new to Cricut. I just got a Joy for Christmas and I’m wheelchair bound since I’m a little helpless. I used make bags and would to try now. Thanks for this video!

Thanks for a great video. Learned lots. Looking forward to seeing how you use your sewing machine cut outs and embroidery techniques!

This was great! I don’t have a cricut yet, but I will soon. You made getting started look so simple. Tfs. 👏🏼

Jess, Thank u, thank u for doing a video on this. Unfortunately can't watch the video right now but when I heard u say cut vinyl for bag making I thought Bingo! That's what I want! I couldn't decide which one to buy so this will be a great help 🥰😙

Your camera is good and the focus is great so far... yes the struggle is REAL with using new equipment. Glad I'm not the only one who talks to the equipment. I'll check out this one out.

I haven’t used mine much for fabric cutting but I have used it for cutting out patterns/templates on the plastic dollar cutting board. I’ve used them for patterns ever since I saw your video.

@@laurasandy4479 I have the first maker. I’ve used it to cut cork and leather keychains but not fabric. Here’s the link to Jess’ pattern templates tutorial kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2SFutWLqdXZgtY.html. There isn’t a video of a cricket cutting the cutting board that I know of. I load the digital file to my circuit, remove the background and save it as a SVG. Make sure to keep the test square so you can size the pattern. Slap the cutting board on the mat then let the circuit cut out the template. Can’t remember what settings I use you’ll have to test your machine to see what works. Hope this helps. It would work the same if you want to cut fabric I guess.

I received the Cricut Maker 3 as a Christmas present, so this is a perfect video for me! I also have the large easy press 2, but in the UK you can only get the raspberry colour! Can’t wait for more Cricut and Applique content!

SOOOOO happy you did this!! Been asking ALL these questions....

You really inspire me to try my circuit maker! Thank you your video really help my confidence!

Thank you Jess for doing this video. I was happy to see that others have the Scan and Cut as well. I have not used in years. I dug it out and am going to experiment on cutting vinyl and cork as you did. I would love to use my matching for cutting out fabric for bag making,

Update: I experimented on vinyl, textured vinyl, shiny vinyl, cork, PUL and quilt cotton. Success! All I have is and old standard blade and standard mat that I wipe down and used washi tape. I started with cut settings from an old video and they worked perfectly.I did not adjust down enough for the cork and PUL, it cut the mat,but I can play with that. The old mat was not sticky enough for quilt cotton even with washi tape so did not work well. I have ordered the proper supplies for fabric cutting.I am thrilled my 5 year old Scanncut2 is up to the job. My least favorite task is cutting out fabric no matter how many times I measure I am always off. This will be a game changer. Thanks for the video, please do more!!!

So glad you did this! I have a maker and use it mostly for kids t shirts but I have cut fabric for face masks and other home decor projects. Just getting into bag making so I'll have to note these settings.

Thank you so much! This was very helpful. I've been looking at the machines and debating the usefulness for both bag making and for dressmaking fabric. Seeing you go through the process has given me the confidence to go for it. I would like to see how you apply the appliqués you make to bags as well as any other trials you put your machine through.

i never take out i always check on the mat before, as you can always do another pass. i also use iron vinyl with the flaux leather

Thank you for this very helpful tutorial!! If you can do more about this, it would be great - and very much appreciated!! 😊🧡

I’ve been using my maker to cut vinyl for my purse pals and it’s great 😊

Those two holder things, one is for pens. So you can have it draw and then cut. I made my Christmas tags this way. It drew the design and then cut out the tag. It was great. I also made bag tags this way with faux suede.

This is super helpful. I have a Cricut maker that I rarely use but I bought it to cut svg files for patterns. I will just have to play with it some more.

A very good tutorial, I was making earrings at Christmas using glittery faux suede it was not staying nice. So I will try the pretty side down. Cool info on the mirroring too. I want to make hand sanitizer key chains. I’m a quilter to I like your sewing machine application

So glad you did a video on this! Thank you!

What perfect timing i was just wondering if there was a way to cut out vinyl for my applique stuff. I'll have to check this out.

I love this. I have been sitting on the fence deciding what to buy.

Yes more bag circuit videos please.

Thanks! I think I want one of those machines….I want to learn more! Great video!

I found your tutorial very interesting I have never seen a cricket demonstrated I have a Scan N Cut which I dearly love. I love the fact I can do it without having to connect to a computer or I can scan Appliqué Files or download SVG files. But I know it’s not for everyone because it is a little more pricey. Great demo. I’m getting ready to cut out a little vinyl clutch myself.

I cut fabric with my maker all the time. It’s wonderful

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video. I can't wait to try it on my Cricut Air 2

Great video! I have a Maker (original one) and use for both crafting and sewing projects. I cut vinyl for t-shirts, mugs, signs, and anything else I can put vinyl on. I have recently started using it to cut materials for making bags and other sewing. The Maker also does a great job of cutting out templates for any pattern I will make several times. It's such a versatile machine; I use it all the time! I do like that more and more patterns are being released in SVG format, yay!

Hi Jess, love your videos, I don’t know how you didn’t open the cricut explore sooner. Bending the mat will make it easier to get the items off the mat and makes the mat last longer

You are way too much fun, we need to hang out I could use the inspiration, I make quilts but now you have me interested in making bags.

This is great - my Cricut should be arriving in the next day or two…. Bought so I can enhance my bag making as well as label everything in my house 😊😊

Super helpful! I use my Original Maker to cut out stuff. I’ve had luck with the Non Adhesive Vinyl setting. It does 2 passes and it’s worked so far. Can’t wAit to see what you make with these!

I got a Cricut Maker just before the pandemic and I wanted to use it in my sewing but I have no idea what I am doing. I have done a few paper projects and one HTV project but I would LOVE LOVE LOVE more ideas on how I can use my Marker in the bag room!!!

Hey Jess, Im cleaning my office and listening to you.

I love your new camera! I had so much trouble with my Cricut Joy that I returned it and got a Brother Scan N Cut. I'd love to see how you do the topstitching!

Yes please !! A tutorial on sewing the appliqué

I saved this video. I have an explorer 3 but I have never used it. I hope you do more with this.

Have you tried a canvas fabric.. love this tutorial.. I had no idea how to even approach this.. but wanted to!

If you want, you can create your own setting and name it whatever you want. I created a setting that cuts the plastic chopping mats for templates.

I have the Cricut Joy and the Maker. I have made a lot of greeting cards with the Joy. I’ve made earrings, keychains and iron-on names for some backpacks for gifts. I plan on using the svg files to cut the Pocket and Purse Pals. I had the Explorer air 2 but I sold it when I bought the Maker.

The new camera looks great!!!

Camera looks great! ♥️

Yes like the new camera

Jess how do you know what I'm thinking!? In a sewing rut- you got me covered. Wanted to start using my cricut for bag making- no problem! 👍 its getting kinda spooky now 😅 but I like it. 🥰

Love the video! I bought the original maker in the Black Friday sales a d love it! So far only done the htv and normal transfer vinyl but been wanting to use it for bag making for a while so definitely been encouraged to experiment now! I've just gotten the NCW svg files so hoping to have a go at that as well as the pouch you did a while ago with the heart cut out and the animal crossing fabric - can't remember the name off the top of my head!!!!!

I have an Explore Air 1...yep, an oldy. I have the purse pal svg and cut cork and vinyl using the "deep cut blade". Cuts beautifully....including those darn card slots! But never thought to cut vinyl appliques...duh to me! Gonna find that sewing machine design...super cool. Awesome video, you rock!

Love it ! Thanks for al the tips. Are you going to have the sewing machine file available ( svg ) ? 🙂

Yes, please shoot some videos on how to use the Cricut to cut embroidery items. I’ve tried a few but I didn’t get the size just right. Thank you for all you do!

This machine is cool. I like how it cuts. I would love to see what you do with the fabric from this video

Camera looks great! I would love for you to do a video if stitching those sewing machines on to a project. Thanks

Yay I be been wanting to try this but afraid to!

Thank you sooo much for this tutorial. I was not sure if I wanted to purchase the circuit or the cameo 4. But it looks like this is pretty easy to use so I might buy it. By the way I love the vinyl with all the print, could you tell me where you bought it? It is so cute.

Love the new camera a wider lens, and I see you have the sewing machine teapot from EPCOT, I saw it and loved it but had no room in my suitcase.🤪

This was a great video. I thought I'd chip in my take o. Your new camera and lense. It's great! Love yhe wide view. I noticed when you hold the vinyl up vlose it took about 2-3 seconds to focus. And by then, you were ready to pull away, and in my head I'm like, wait, hold up. Lemme see it again! 😆 I know white can be just as tricky as black to see details as small as a razor line cut. So don't frett to bad. I just wanted to let you know how I could see it on my end on my phone. (Which I use primarily for my yt viewing) Thanks again Jess for a great video. You are the sweetest for sharing!

I use my Maker to cut the rectangles for the snack bags. Simple cuts, but I can’t cut straight so I am grateful you put the dimensions in the tutorials. I have cut vinyl on the Maker for the snack bags but maybe I use thinner than you are showing.

Love to see my tutorial on appliqué and embroidery and what you do with it ❤️

I use my explorer Air 2 for mostly paper crafts and a bit of vinyl (adhesive and htv) but not tried fabrics yet. Mostly because I thought I needed to interface everything with the Air 2. But faux leather is basically stabilized already so think this video pushed me to try it soon. Thank you.

That was entertaining and helpful. I have the maker too and have cut vinyl with no problems. I quilt and have yet to have it cut anything because it's easier to cut in large quantities at once. For the most part, I print stuff for things to overlay and some clothing items.

Just watched your wallet tutorial and all your material is sooooooo cute and everything you make turns out really nice. Hope with a knife blade that it will cut real suede. Thx for helping make Design Space make since.

thank you for your video can you make one on how to apply or sew it as an appliqué

Hi Jess, not sure if this was already answered or if you have figured this out, but you can choose to do multiples when cutting using the Explore by changing the number next to Project Copies (shown right above your mat image). Been binge watching your tutorials. 🙂

Run a lighter quickly over the edges to remove the “fuzzies.”

Hello Jessie I Also have a circuit maker . Your camera is great

Your new camera is great! I just bought the Explore Air 2 and can’t wait to play with it more. I did notice though, on mine for some reason, does not feed the mat all the way through before it cuts and I thought it should. Might have to reach out to cricut support.
