Cricut recently released a line of different patterns for iron-on vinyl so I, of course, had to get nearly 1 of every pattern to play around with! As you can see the colors and patterns vary making it easy to find the perfect pattern for any project.
Because I am the type of person who makes gifts for people, I typically have a stock of “blank” items like tumblers, mugs, and even makeup bags. I decided to use some patterned iron-on on an already made makeup bag but I’m keeping this one for myself!
If you are a seamstress, the Cricut Access store has a pattern you can cut right on your maker! You can find the full pattern here!
