I love this! I love your videos! I got a cutting machine, I have a small child so I have no time for mining information from all the videos with useless chit-chat and lenghty talks about how to do stuff without showing all the steps clearly etc. I accidently found one of your videos, enjoyed it so I looked up felt cutting as I want to cut felt mostly. I'm so glad you have this up as well! I love you! Clear instructions, I can even watch without sound as there are subs, you show what I have to see etc. Perfect! I'm over the moon now it will be so much easier to get started. Everything needed is included but there is no time wasting etc.
This video is awesome. I'm seriously considering buying a Cameo 4 just to cut felt. I love using cheap felt to make stuffed ornaments and toys. You have convinced me to buy one. I will be able to make so many other cool things, too. I can't wait!
I heard you can iron on freezer paper to the felt. Then you can put it paper to mat and when you finish cutting, the freezer paper can be peeled off your cut job. And you mat will be fuzz free.
@@AvantiMorocha1 your video makes me want to get the this cameo. I already have a silhouette (but it’s older). To cut felt would be a game changer. Thank you for your time and efforts to put this video up! 😊
There is 100 percent rayon felt. Alpaca can be felted. Polyester is a different polymer from acrylic, with different melting points, for example. A water soluble stabilizer on the mat-facing side should minimize undesired sticking.
Thanks for the video! 👍You made the same one with Cricut, and it looks like the Cameo 4 does a much better job. What are your thoughts regarding two machines? Which one would you recommend?
Hi, if you have never use a cutting machine or a Design Software definitely Cricut since is it’s way more user friendly, however if that is not the case you may prefer Cameo.
Hola! Me han servido mucho tus videos! Estoy intentando cortar fieltro, pero cada vez que selecciono el material (felt) cuando estoy en Send, se cierra el programa por completo. Ya bajé de nuevo el software pero sigue pasando lo mismo
Amazing video! Thank you. Just one question: how many cutting works would you say a tack mat would last? After how many cut does it last it "stickyness"?
Hello:) I stumbled onto Universal cutting mats. They are a lot cheaper than the regular mats, and are very sticky! I think they hold their tack longer than the Silhouette mats. I live in Australia and don't know if they are elsewhere, but if they are, I would recommend you try them:) These mats would be perfect for felt!
You can agently wash/scrub the cutting mats with a mild solution of dish detergent and water. Then air dry them and reuse! The CRICUT mats last longer than others.
Which type of felt would you reccomend to make car air fresheners? I have bought some felt from amazon, and they are these 3x4inches and 0.3cm ( thickness ) in rectangular shaped felt. However, my cameo 4 is unable to cut through the felt
@@AvantiMorocha1 yes i have the blanks on amazon, but i would like to make my own custom shapes too. I could not get my silhoutte to cut the felt blanks i bought from amazon as they are slightly thicker than the ones i've seen in your video ( 0.3cm) The felt that you used in your video, are they suitable for making car air fresheners?
Could I use the rotary blade to cut 1.5mm holes in felt. I want to create holes around the edges of felt for blanket stitching to make stuff animals from felt.
Hi, you should have a mat exclusive to use for felt, you’ll only clean it when nothing stick to it anymore. You can use dish soap to clean it. This will add more life to your mat but eventually you need to change it. A lot of people use contact paper to avoid the residues left by the felt.

You’re welcome, I’m glad you like them 😊
Thank you! This answered a lot questions I had about using felt. I appreciate you going through the steps every time.

Thank you so much, finally a video that helps!
Can you also please do a video on faux leather and chunky glitter fabric.
Thank you for this video. I like how you showed exactly what steps to take.
You're welcome 😊❤️

Yeah, I haven’t tried, but I should. I also heard you could use contact paper.

This was very informative! Thank you for sharing and for the instructions!

Thanks for sharing the tips. They are all very helpful. Is there any study for cutting on adhesive copper tape of 3M?
Hi, I haven’t use that material, so I don’t have any tips.
Hi Avanti Morocha, thank you for sharing. I have one question, which machine is good for felt cutting? Camio 4 or cricut maker??
Thanks for the video! 👍You made the same one with Cricut, and it looks like the Cameo 4 does a much better job. What are your thoughts regarding two machines? Which one would you recommend?

Thank you for your tutorial. It was so helpful.
You’re welcome 😊
Hi! This is a very helpful video. I had a question, does there need to be a large space between the cuts to use the rotary blade?
Hi, you should have enough space to avoid getting the guide cut in your pieces.
Thank you for your clear, well presented video!
You’re welcome 😊

Hola, nunca había escuchado de ese problema, tal vez como alternativa puedes crear un nuevo material.
Hola Avanti la tienda para comprar la Cameo 4 que muestras en la cajita de descripción, hace envíos a Perú? estoy interesada en comprarla! gracias
Amazing video! Thank you. Just one question: how many cutting works would you say a tack mat would last? After how many cut does it last it "stickyness"?
Hi, it depends on the felt you're using I'll say between 20 to 30+ ( whole mat cuts)

Stiff felt, even thought you could cut it with Silhouette i recommend buying the blanks on Amazon, remember time is money.
@@AvantiMorocha1 yes i have the blanks on amazon, but i would like to make my own custom shapes too.

Ciao bel tutorial grazie. Volevo chiederti che spessore di feltro si può usare con la lama rotativa?
Cio, max 2mm.
@@AvantiMorocha1 grazie ciao
You're wonderful, great video. So informative! 😄
You're welcome 😊♥️
Could I use the rotary blade to cut 1.5mm holes in felt. I want to create holes around the edges of felt for blanket stitching to make stuff animals from felt.
I’m not sure, I think it’s to small.
Have you rinsed your mat? Does it help prolong the life of the mat?
I have it, it'll prolong the life but just a little, eventually you need to change the mat, especially if you're cutting fabric.
very well explained, thank you 😍
You're welcome 😊
Hello! Will the rotary blade work with Cameo 5?
Sorry, I don’t know, I don’t have the Cameo 5.
Avanti, can you register the size of the cut.
Hi, sorry, I’m not sure what do you mean.
Hola no tendrás un vídeo donde explique para que es la tableta iluminada ?
Hola, no estoy muy segura a qué tableta iluminada te refieres, no me acuerdo mostrar está en el vídeo?
Thank you. Great video
You're welcome 😊❤️
Great video!! Thank you much!!
You're welcome 😊❤️
Where did you purchase the semi-stiff felt?
Hi, I got it at Hobby Lobby,
how to clean the felt residue from the mat?
Hi, you should have a mat exclusive to use for felt, you’ll only clean it when nothing stick to it anymore. You can use dish soap to clean it. This will add more life to your mat but eventually you need to change it. A lot of people use contact paper to avoid the residues left by the felt.

You're welcome 😊
can you cut alphabet letters? I can't
Hi, I haven't tried it, but I don't think there will be a problem.
