I thought of digital cutting machines as mainly for vinyl (on windows/coffee cups) and paper crafts, but realized how wrong I was once I actually starting playing with a Cricut Explore Air 2! You can use this tool to make so much more than simple applique shirts, so I rounded up a bunch of Cricut sewing projects: including ideas for kids, women, home decor, and accessories. Can you believe you can make a whole purse on this magical machine! I think all these creative ideas will get your wheels turning, I know I’ll be making more things with mine in the future. I have cut projects out by hand in the past, but a digital machine makes perfect and clean lines, elevating projects from ‘homemade’ to ‘handmade’.

This is the Cricut Explore Air 2* I received from a sponsored post with Cricut; you can see what I made under the ‘kids’ section below! Isn’t it pretty? No cartridges, it’s 100% digital and you can upload your own designs, which was key for almost all of these projects shared.
I don’t have pictures for all of them, but be sure to click through and check out all the projects that I’ve found! I did see that there is a Craftsy class “Craft & Create With Your Cricut Explore*” taught by Lia Griffith, would love to know if you’ve taken it since the reviews seem to be mixed.
