Learn how to make a plushie of your favorite animal with easy cutting by your Cricut! I love when my interests combine and today they absolutely do as we learn how to make a plushie with or without a Cricut! I love sewing, Cricut crafting, and the kawaii-inspired characters that influenced our patterns. Alexa and I have sewn many plushies together over the years and, once we got a Cricut, we also figured out how to cut fabric with a Cricut! It does require some machine and hand sewing, so set up your couch caddy! I'll share the materials you'll need and everything I learned along the way about using fleece, minky, felt, and fur in a cutting machine!
