Cricut Tutorial: How to cut heat transfer vinyl without a cutting machine

, by . 1 Comment

Tutorial: How to cut heat transfer vinyl without a cutting machineHeat transfer vinyl is a quick way to add personality to a sewing project – or to a bag or t-shirt that you’ve purchased from the store.  But did you know you don’t have to have a Silhouette or Cricut to cut the vinyl?  Kimbo from A Girl and a Glue Gun shows how you can cut the vinyl by hand.  It takes more time, especially if you’re cutting a complicated image, but it will give you the ability to add heat transfer vinyl even if you don’t have a machine.
