An overhead view displays all the essential tools and materials required for the Cricut-aided embroidery project, including a Cricut Maker 3, various fabrics, embroidery floss, hoops, and the crucial washable fabric pen. This shot effectively sets the stage for the crafting session.
A screenshot of Cricut Design Space displays several single-line designs that are perfect for embroidery patterns, including floral motifs and text. These designs are ideal because the Cricut pen can easily trace them onto fabric, providing clear lines for stitching.
- 布とマットの準備、洗える布用ペンの装着と描画の基本手順
The Cricut Design Space interface shows the filters being applied, specifically setting the 'Operation Type' to 'Draw Only', which helps narrow down image searches to suitable single-line patterns for embroidery. This action is crucial for finding designs that the Cricut machine can effectively draw.
- 刺繍枠で布をピンと張るコツ、糸選びと手刺繍の進め方
Hands carefully position the pink fabric, featuring a freshly drawn embroidery pattern, over the inner ring of a wooden embroidery hoop, ensuring the design is centered. This step is crucial for properly framing the artwork before manual stitching begins.
- ペン跡の落とし方（お湯で洗い流す）と、壁掛けにする仕上げ手順
Two pieces of embroidered purple fabric are shown side-by-side; one still has visible pen marks, while the other has been cleaned with hot water, effectively erasing the washable fabric pen lines. This comparison clearly demonstrates the efficacy of the washable pen in leaving a clean finished product.

“Cricutは切るもの”という思い込みは、今日でおしまい。ペンを使えば、刺繍図案を精密に布へ描けます。必要なのは布、刺繍枠、刺繍糸、そして洗える布用ペン。どのCricutでもペン描画に対応していればOK（動画ではMaker 3を使用）。この方法なら、図案選び→描画→手刺繍→仕上げとステップが明快で、練習にも本番にも向きます。ここで紹介するやり方は“刺繍のやり方”そのものではなく、あくまで下絵転写の効率化がテーマです。磁気 刺繍枠 for embroidery
プロのコツ - 最初は小さめで単純な図案から。単線の花や葉が扱いやすい
The search results for 'flower' with the 'Draw Only' filter active reveal numerous single-line floral patterns suitable for embroidery, giving the user many options to choose from. This step shows the practical application of the filter to find desired artwork.
図案の余白はたっぷり。フープ直径より各辺2cm以上あると安定
- 布はマットにしっかり密着。シワはブレイヤーでのばす
Hands carefully smooth a piece of purple fabric onto a pink FabricGrip mat using a brayer, ensuring the fabric is flat and securely adhered. This prevents wrinkles and shifting during the drawing process, which is vital for precise pattern transfer.
A design has been moved to its own pink mat within Cricut Design Space, indicating that different fabric colors will be used for each pattern. This separation of designs onto individual mats allows for efficient use of various fabric pieces.
Three chosen designs, including a floral bouquet and text, are displayed on the Design Space canvas, correctly sized and positioned for individual embroidery hoops. This visual confirms that the designs are prepared for the next stage of the project.
The floral design is repositioned on the mat in Design Space, leaving ample empty space around it, which is essential for easily securing the fabric in an embroidery hoop later. This careful placement ensures that the embroidered piece will have enough fabric for framing.
The Design Space screen confirms that the base material is set to 'Cotton' and provides instructions to load the pen into Clamp A. This ensures the machine applies the correct pressure for drawing on fabric and is prepared for the washable fabric pen.
A close-up view shows hands inserting the washable fabric pen into Clamp A of the Cricut Maker 3 until it clicks securely into place. Proper pen loading is essential for the machine to draw accurately and prevent damage to the pen or machine.
The Cricut Maker 3 is actively drawing a intricate design onto the purple fabric using the washable fabric pen, creating clear guidelines for subsequent embroidery. This highlights the machine's primary role in transferring the pattern efficiently and accurately.
Hands pull the excess pink fabric from behind the embroidery hoop, stretching it until the fabric within the hoop is taut like a drum. Achieving proper tension is important to prevent puckering and ensure smooth embroidery stitches.
A close-up shows hands manually embroidering a green design onto purple fabric, meticulously following the lines drawn by the Cricut machine. This step demonstrates the traditional crafting element of the project, filling in the pattern with colorful thread.
Hands use a craft knife to carefully trim the excess fabric from the back of the embroidery hoop, cutting as close to the frame as possible. This step creates a neat and professional finish, preparing the artwork for display.
