![]() ![]() Yes, you can cut Iron-On with scissors, but not with a lot of details and cool effects as if you were using a Cricut or other cutting machines.Īs you know, I love Cricut (not sponsored) therefore, the following screenshots are using this beautiful machine. Therefore, to truly take advantage of HTV, you want to use a cutting machine. How to Cut Iron-On with Your Cricut Machine Smart Iron-On: It’s a type of vinyl that is designed by Cricut, and it’s meant to be cut with the Cricut Joy and without a “Cricut Mat.” It comes in most of the styles I just mentioned. It’s perfect for use on nylon, neoprene, and polyester fabrics this is the vinyl you will want to use on your swimsuits and pregnancy clothing. SportFlex Iron-On: This is a type of HTV that will stretch with your fabric. If you love working with Glitter Iron-On, I recommend you do it with great daylight or purchase Bright Pad for easy weeding. Glitter vinyl is tough to weed, and sometimes tricky to cut on your machine. Glitter: you can find multiple colors with this option. The following styles I am about to mention come in a wide variety of colors as well! Different Types of Iron-On There are many styles, that, no matter how picky you are, you’ll find the type you like. I will show you more of this later in this article. I can’t stress enough how vital these two things are. The second thing to remember is that you need to “Mirror-On” your image because when cutting vinyl, you are cutting from the back, not the front, so If you don’t, “Mirror” your image will look backward. The first one is that when cutting Iron-On, you need to place it shiny (or pretty) side down on the mat otherwise, you’ll cut the backing sheet. There are two FUNDAMENTAL steps when cutting HTV you need to remember. Backing sheets are transparent in color, and 99.9% of the time, very easy to tell apart because they are shiny. HTV is attached to a backing sheet that keeps the material in place when you cut and transfer it. ![]() The cool thing about individual sheets is that you can get a single package with all kinds of colors. Individual Sheets: They are sold in different sizes the most common ones are 12x12in and 12x10in.There’s less variety on large rolls, but tons of it when you buy anywhere from 12x48in. Rolls: The overall width of a vinyl roll is 12in, and the length can go from 12in to 20 and even 40ft.Iron-On usually comes in rolls and individual sheets. Tip: Don’t be confused, Iron-On and Heat Transfer Vinyl is the same thing!
