Hilarious! Thank you. So very creative.
Thanks for sharing the info ladies! I loved the WalMart shenanigans!
Hi! I found you a little while back while searching for ways to use my expression. You are such a joy to watch! You are a very happy bubbly person, like a best friend on the web :) I have to ask, where do you buy your tops? They are always so cute yet modest. Thanks :)

Michelle
Thank you!!! I JUST asked someone how to do this yesterday!
cool video. I LOVE the outakes. Hysterical.
Oh yea...what did you spray the cricut mat with? Does it make the mat last longer?
So cute! You guys crack me up. I want to know how Karlee made your letters. Too cute. Thanks!
Leaned a couple of things with this video...first how to cute material with cricut and second watch out for ladies with a video camera in Hobby Lobby :o)
First of all, you guys are goobers. :) Secondly, I'm SO glad you did a video on fabric! I think it's a genius idea, but I didn't want to try it before I knew what I was doing. Thanks for the tutorial!
~ac
Great video! I've seen people use steam a seam 2 also, have you tried that?
~Crystal
I want to play with you and Karley!
Too cute! Just found your site today... got a Cricut for Christmas so I can't wait to see all the great things I can do with it!!
You make it look so easy. Did you use the deep cut blade?
Smiles, Lynda

I love it when Karlee is visiting. You girlies crack me up!
Wow this is very helpful and gave me a few ideas to do for my kids. Thanks Robyn and Karlee.
I almost spit my drink when your shoes flew off!!! LOL ;)
I love this! My daughter is turning 2 next month and a #2 would be so cute for her! Thanks gals!!
Robyn,
I went JoAnns.com and I couldn't find the Wonder Under online. Is there something else like it I can get? Thanks for your time!
Christie
Robyn, I don't know if anyone else has suggested this (I don't want to take the time to read all the comments). It is better to cut your wonder under slightly smaller than your fabric. When you go to iron, the fabric will cover all the wonder under and you will not get the glue on the bottom of your iron.
Also, to separate the backing from the fabric, on the wrong side, run a straight pin over the wonder under backing paper to make a slit. Bend the fabric and the paper should pull away giving you a piece to grab hold of to continue pulling it off.
This is what I do, I hope it helps.
Thanks for the video - I was wondering how to do that. You girls had way to much fun in the stores. Robyn, I loved it when you kicked your shoes off opposite directions
wadodd1@sbcglobal.net
Hey if you use "Stiffy" by Plaid you can cut really intricate stuff if you wanted too - but you can't iron that onto your material - BUT you could also cut it with the wonder-under face up and fabric face down on your mat and that can also help you make easier cuts :) Fun fun :) Great video and you and Karlee are so cute :)
Great video Robyn, keep them coming. If you put the fabric down to the mat with the paper side up that works really well too. I love doing it like that. Hope this helps. Thanks for being such an inspirition.
You guys are too funny. You need to sign a contract for a reality show. I know I would tune in. LOL. Thanks for sharing.
You two are a hoot! Cute video. Thanks for the instruction. I'm still a little nervous about the whole thing, but I'll give it a try. Cute idea with the onesie. I bet it'll be darling with the button added to it.

I Love Love Love your Loft!! Thanks for sharing the pictures!! :) :)
Great video! Can't wait to try this! Thanks ladies!!! You guys have a great time at CHA!!
Love, love, love the video and couldn't stop laughing at the outtakes. YOU TWO HAVE WAY TOOOO MUCH FUN!
Just a tip from a quilter.... always cut your Wonder Under smaller than your fabric. If the sticky stuff gets on your iron it's the devil to get off and transfers to your nice clean white shirts... usually your husband's favorite.

Thanks for sharing this video girls it is not something I have seen before so very worthwhile for me.

Thanks so much for showing this I have not tried this yet and I have been holding out, I think maybe valentines day would be a good time to try this maybe if I make an apron with hearts on it for my daughter in law, I love hearts so anything hearts I am there for.
Thanks

Robyn, thank you! I am off to get the under wonder. I have enjoyed your videos so much that I ordered your CD - I can't wait to grab a cup of coffee and watch it!
ellen @ crafty 4u!
Thanks for sharing this Robyn!! I always wanted to try and i would have done it with the wonder under on the top side = not against the sticky matt!! Now i know better.
TFS your talents. BTW love the outtakes - will miss Karlee
You two are nuts......having so much fun with friends is what life is about.....I hate to see Karlee leave you and I know you do too.....
thanks for showing how wonder under works with the cricut....
you 2 crack me up, it is a great way to start my day, laughing.....
thanks for the video
awesome!! I already have some ideas using this technique! THanks guys!
Ladies, this is the dorkiest video you both have made. Keep laughing and enjoying life. Thanks for being so positive. The best part was the shoes flying off.
Great video! Just a couple of suggestions: Use either a press cloth (purchased) or just a regular sheet of paper to cover your fabric and Heat N'Bond when pressing to prevent getting glue on your iron. Also, when you press move the iron up and down (On and off of the fabric) rather than pushing the iron back and forth. The back and forth method could cause the fabric to shift.Love all of the videos. Thank you.

Hi you guys, love the video.. where did you get the CRAFTERS COMPANION and what is it? You guys are sooooo funny!!!!
You two are a scream! Thanks for the info and the out takes.
Thanks for the great tips! I wanted to know how to do this and I'm so glad you are willing to figure things out for us. Can't wait to try this.
oh my gosh...watching you 2 makes be smile out loud..thanks for the out-takes....
Great video. Get to know a quilter and it will make your life a little easier when cutting material with the cricut. There's a couple of hints that will make this a lot easier for you.
wigellen@aol.com
Thank you for the video. Another fun thing I can do with my Cricut. What was the name of the spray you use to make your mat sticky?
Thanks for the video and loved the outtakes!! I have done this and used Heat and Bond instead of Wonder Under. It works well too. I cut out letters for sashes for a baby shower - Future Grandma, Cousin to be, etc. They were quite a hit. Keep those videos coming. Diane

Awesome job girls! You 2 sure do stir up the creative juices! And the smiles! You must go shopping either late night or very early morning - no other customers in the stores...next time go where the place is packed and video tape some of the customer's facial expressions as you are being silly!
Thanks for the fabric tips! You girls are having just too much fun!

Thanks Robyn and Karlee, always wanted to see how that was done. Loved the outtakes, especially with the shoes flying! My computer is in the family room, so I burst out laughing and my husband said, whats so funny? I said, oh its Robyn and Karlee and he said, who's Robyn and Karlee which made me laugh even more!
Rosalie in California
Loved watching this video and the outakes were hilarious! Loved the shoes coming off!!! You two are nuts! Keep us laughing.
Loved the video! Thanks for teaching us another way to use the Cricut. You two are the funniest friends I've seen in a long time. I love watching you both. Thanks for a great laugh and sharing your moments.
Gina
lol, you girls crack me up! Nice landing at the end there Robyn!
After cleaning up hot chocolate off my puter, LOL, Thanks for this video. I have been gonna try this but did not know what to do.
Love when you kicked off your shoes, LMBO. I can just see both of you in the store doing this. Looks like you had a blast.
bevb
You two are such a hoot! Loved the shoes flying off in walmart! I think that was a walmart anyway! Did that happen by accident or did you KNOW it would happen??
Thanks for showing us the fabric cutting. Keep up the great work and showing us your ideas!
LOVE IT!

Okay...here is my thought for you and Karlee. A friend is someone you can be a total dork with in private and you know they will love you anyway. A BEST FRIEND is someone you can be a dork with in front of the entire MPS community and the the friendship grows sweeter in the process. I so enjoy you silly girls. Thanks for sharing.
I too have been meaning to try this. I loved the "good times", especially when you went on the cart & kicked your shoes off. I laughed outloud. Will have to show my hubby, he'll appreciate. :)
Have not tried material. Looks easy. Will have to try it soon.
Thanks for the video.
You guys are too funny, love watching you.
Robyn,
This is great, but have you ever cut felt? That is what I'd like to learn how to do.
Great idea! Thanks for the laughs! Gail gailheinecke@charter.net
that is just great i did get to cut material once and it work but i tried to stitch around the image with my sewing machine and the glue from the paper jammed up my needle. i was trying to do some type of patch work. the cartridge is beautiful now i want it "Forever Young". maybe you will give it out too
I've always wanted to know how to do the fabric with the Cricut and now I do - thanks to Robyn!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for the video and the funnies at the end are SO cute!!! It's nice to have a friend you can be yourself with :)
Thanks for providing a lesson on how to cut fabric the easy way.
WATCH OUT FOR FLYING S*H*O*E*S!!!!!
You two totally crack me up.
Just a little Wonder Under tip for you- when you cut your Wonder Under, make it just a little bit smaller than your fabric & then you won't get all the glue on your iron. When you iron the Won. Und., lift your iron up and down rather than "ironing" with it.
You may be able to get the glue off your iron with the iron cleaner that you get at Wal Mart---at my W. Mart it's shelved with the starch. It comes in little(1.5 inch) white tubes & works really well. Don't iron any good clothes until you get the glue off--voice of experience. (I'm out right now or I could give you the brand name.)
Thank you (and Karlee) so much for this wonderful blog and for this great post!!!
Pat B.
Thanks for the tips! I've been wanting to give this a try. :)
~Anna
the two of you are tooooo cute!
Thanks so much for the video - using fabric doesn't look too complicated - now that you've figured it out and which settings to use. Glad you and Karlee can have so much fun together and that we get to share in the laughs.
God Bless!
Thanks for sharing the video and for the cartridge giveaways. Hope I win. Cherie skmcrm@netzero.net

So much fun! I just received an Expression for Christmas, and you have taught me so much. I have been really enjoying your videos. I am a new Cricut addict!
m.cgulka@sasktel.net
I want to thank you for posting this. I have been wantin to do this and wasn't sure about the pressure and speed setting. I was curious about the spray you used on your mat to make the fabric stick better. Can you post the name again?

Thank you so much for all of your videos. Fabric cutting was one of the reasons I wanted the Cricut in the first place! I love the idea of the onesie, however, as cute as the button is, I worry about putting buttons on baby items because of the risk of choking should it come off. Please keep your videos coming. I'd be lost without you!
Thanks for another great idea, keep them coming please, need all the help I can get. I am getting better with each new thing I learn. Thanks again, Jeananne
Thank you so much for all your videos. I love my Cricut but have been half scared of it! Your videos really help. conchita_ballard@yahoo.com
Fun video. I have been wanting to try my hand at cutting material on my Cricut. Thanks for clearing the road. That pink onesie isn't by chance for anyone special is it ?
Carol
One thing I would like to add is always use a new blade when cutting fabric. paper dulls blades very quickly
Thanks for the directions. I just tried it and it's not as easy as you make it look. My fabric kept catching and pulling. Maybe I need to put in a new blade like the previous comment suggests. Any other tips?
I have some of my projects that I recently did with fabric and the cricut. One I cut the fabric directly with the cricut as robyn did and the other project the fabric i used was too furry so i used a stencil cut from the cricut. Check it out on my blog www.geminipapercrafts.blogspot.com ~Heather~
