Do you use your Cricut for quilting?
#1
I have a Cricut but have not used it much. I scrap book cause I think it is important to preserve the pics but I do not really enjoy it at all, but I love the idea of making quilt blocks with it. Can any of you give me some info?

I don't have Cricut, but have a comment for you. I also believe that is important to preserve pics, but a shoe box is enough for me. If I don't enjoy I don't do it, period. Now, trying the cricut on fabric sounds like a great idea to me. Please let us know who it works for you.

Somebody on this board... who I can't remember her name right now... sent me a magazine when I mentioned my Cricut after Christmas this year.
The article said that you have to starch the heck out of the fabric. Get it as stiff and board-like as possible (like cardstock I beleive they said) and then use the Cricut. Not exactly quilting friendly!?
I tried one piece. Enough said.

You can use the machines made for paper on fabric? but you have to make it stiff . What results do u have if you don't.
Ok another question. In some of the Eleanor Burns videos she uses some kind of cutter for straight cuts. What is it
