So to make shirts I design the graphics in a free (well, open-source) application called Inkscape then once complete I save it as a .SVG file and then open it with the Cricut Designer application that comes with the machine. Load the Iron-On material onto the cutting board, load it in the machine and cut the design.

Once its cut I peal off the section of the material I don't need then iron the graphic on to the shirt, Or in this case, I used my wife's transfer heater. That's pretty much it, sounds harder then it is. You can use any graphics like JPG's and use them as-is, you don't need to draw anything, the machine has built-in graphics and fonts as well. The crest was a JPG that I just upload to the Cricut software.

Make the vinyl stickers is done the same way. Pictures below.

My wife also does the Cricut crafting as a hobby. She has the t-shirt/baseball cap machine. Is there a way to send me the file so she can load it in her machine and make the transfer for the shirt?
