Smashing! Wonderful colours.
Wow. I didn’t know quilts could be so colorful. I mean color, yes, but that is lots and lots of color.
Those are some amazing works of art, right there.
Awesome Work!! I am guessing for the combined artwork of Texas… Spring Chicken. I love the colors. You are a true artisan!
Those are beautiful.
The second one!
Very nice work.
Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful! What a thrill to finish such a piece! I love this particularly because of the Yellow Rose of Texas. My mother was born there, and yellow roses give me fond memories of her.
I have a snowman block wall hanging with lots of tiny details that I’ve been meaning to get started on. Bought the material 6 years ago in preparation for retirement.
Oh yes, and I must not forget the farm wall hanging. Yikes!
Any advice for someone who wants to do this? I just got my glowforge and I want to know how to cut fabric.
Yup! Use the search function at the top of every page.
What were your settings for cutting the cotton?
Wishing you well!
So three points:
1- the OP hasn’t posted in a few years so not likely to get a response.
2- forum policy is that any topic with non-proof grade settings can only be posted in the #beyond-the-manual (glowforge has really paranoid lawyers apparently)
3- while not for this project, many others have cut various thicknesses and types of cottons that you can search for from the the top any page. You can even focus the search on #beyond-the-manual as that’s where any settings people have used can be found.
Oh and 4-
Welcome to the community!
I have been using speed 500, power 70. Since I am using these as fusible applique pieces they are backed with fusible before I cut them in the glowforge. I adhere the fabric to a board with a repositionable adhesive spray to keep things from blowing around. Some colors of fabric need a little more or less power to cut cleanly.
Could you post a picture of your set up? Would love to see the fabric set up in your machine. I also do appliqué quilts.
I cut 100% cotton fabric perfectly at 500/60. No burning, frays etc… It’s super convenient! Just make sure to accurately measure your fabric’s thickness, as it varies quite a bit…
Beautiful.
What were the fabric settings that you used? Did you have any problem with the fabric moving on the crumb tray?
Thank you
The OP gave settings 4 posts above yours.
Thank you
