To cut out the fabric pieces i used a 24 inch pink fabric grip mat from cricut. But how do you keep your mat clean. If your fabric is fairly wrinkled it is a good idea to iron it to remove any stubborn wrinkles. I previously used this mat a long time ago to cut out the fabric for this cute bunny pillow for easter.

With the release of the cricut maker cricut also gave us a new cutting mat the pink fabricgrip mat. It s intended for use with the cricut maker machine which puts the pressure on the fabric to hold it into place as opposed to other cricut machines which rely on the mat to hold the material in place. Right now there are four different types of mats light grip blue standard grip green strong grip purple and fabric pink. Depending on the materials that you are working with you will need a different mat.
