I have one and have used it a couple of times for cutting out appliques. You would need to use a fusible webbing like Heat and Bond on the back. Whereas if you're just doing applique the normal way, you'd use the other stuff (can't think of the name now for the life of me) but it's something Light. *L*.. Anyways, with the cricut, you need more stabilizing than if you're doing it the other way because of the blade. Does this make sense?
