Cricut Pink Fabric Mat

To cut out the fabric pieces i used a 24 inch pink fabric grip mat from cricut.

Cricut pink fabric mat.

Right now there are four different types of mats light grip blue standard grip green strong grip purple and fabric pink. So put that scraping tool away and move on to step 2. The adhesive on the pink mat is specifically for fabric and is not as strong as the other mat adhesives. After i cut all the pieces for the masks i knew i was in trouble.

That means scraping will actually pull off the adhesive and leave areas that will no longer stick. With the release of the cricut maker cricut also gave us a new cutting mat the pink fabricgrip mat. The fabric should lay very flat on the mat. Step 2 placing your fabric on the mat grain.

The cricut maker is purpose built for cutting fabric among hundreds of other materials and the fabric mat is essential for getting perfect fabric cuts. Unlike the other cricut mats the pink fabricgrip mat is a bit more sensitive to scraping. Bumps or bubbles in the fabric may result in imprecise cuts. So i had a lot of old strings and fluff on this fabricgrip mat already.

Depending on the materials that you are working with you will need a different mat. A cricut mat is the surface where you cut all of your projects. It s intended for use with the cricut maker machine which puts the pressure on the fabric to hold it into place as opposed to other cricut machines which rely on the mat to hold the material in place. I previously used this mat a long time ago to cut out the fabric for this cute bunny pillow for easter.
