Cutting fabric on the Cricut

So this week I was challenging myself with my cricut. I wanted to cut fabric with my expression but just never found the time to do it. I had already bought the fabric and this stuff called Fusible webs by pellon. I iron the fusing on the back of my material. Was ready to cut out my material, set my needle depth to 3, speed to 3 and pressure to 4. The cut was ragged and I still had to cut it with scissors. Tried it again and placed material on bottom and put my depth to 5 and still the cut was not good. I than just have up for the night.

Next day I went Wal Mart and bought Heat N Bond. Put a new blades in, just incase it needed it, but pressure to 5, speed to 3, pressure to 4 and it cut out my design with no jagged edges. It is awesome! Now to get all my cuts done and than put it all together to share with you all. Not going to tell you right now what I am making but it is going to wow you, believe me it will.
