Tip: to protect your matt , put clear transfer tape on your matt , so your sticking the fabric to the transfer tape ! Another cleaning hack for your matt is window cleaning spray.
I have tried using the contact sticky shelf liner from the dollar store to lay down on the mat first then laying down the fabric onto the sticky liner. It works great to keep your mat clean. However, if you are using some thing like a tight design that has sliver cuts, then you have to work a little harder to remove the shelf liner from the mat, but I still think it is totally worth it.
I’m sorry I’m just seeing your question. My blades are still working good but I haven’t cut a whole lot with it I must say. The mat for fabric doesn’t hold out very good though so I find I’m using masking tape to tape down the edges of the fabric. I’ve also used a little bit of temporary Basting spray to hold down the fabric

I just set 1 square on the mat. Press make it, and then set the number I want to replicate. Saves all of the copy and paste.
I cleaned my mat with a sticky lint roller. Try it! Works great.

Thanks for your demo! Cutting accurately is a big pain point and it looks like Cricut can help!
This is just what I needed to get going! I have had my machine for over a year, not sure how to start using it for quilting. Perfect video! Thanks!
Thanks for this channel!
Wonderful thank you so much!
How long did it actually take for the machine to cut the sheet of 2 inch squares?
How can I change the measurements to 2 1/4” or 4 3/8inch
Looking for a tutorial to make quilting stencils on my cricut machine for machine quilting (example like a stimpling template)
How long does the rotary blade last?

@Lesley Chandler is the stick factor holding you back with fabric cutting on the cricut ?
@@LesleyChandlercrafts you can wash wash the mat to get it sticky again.
So there is no way of cutting as many squares as possible with long vertical and horizontal lines (for paper)?
I would like to know this as well. :/
