@coach4gold thank you! I've been looking at several different machines. I was debating on a sizzix or slice machine

i bought a Sizzix die cut machine to cut out fabric stars, etc. You have to buy the thick dies that cut fabric, not sizzlets. Its an investment, but a lot easier than cutting by hand. A cricut machine, if you want to get fancy, can cut more complicated designs out of heat transfer material that you iron on.
Some bows I made for my gym.
I have a cricut and it's lousy at cutting out fabric. But, maybe i'm just not doing it right.
I ironed the fabric to the heat transfer material, then put that on the sticky mat, then put it in the cricut to cut out....and it pulled the fabric off the mat, bunched it up, and it was all frayed and jagged. Anyone have success with a cricut?

they both look great but LOVE the blue one!!!!!Here's some new ones, the one is purple zebra and teal on top they kind of blend in the picture but stand out in person
Thanks means alot since I just started outthey both look great but LOVE the blue one!!!!!
i would experiment. its NOT going to turn out awesome your first few tries, so definitely dont blow a bunch of cash on materials.What would you suggest using on the first bow that i am going to make?
Should i just experiment using crappy ribbon or go out and buy good material?
I agree my first few ones weren't so pretty and I just used left over ribbon from making my christmas baskets lol.i would experiment. its NOT going to turn out awesome your first few tries, so definitely dont blow a bunch of cash on materials.
