Have you tried the Cricut baby bodysuits yet? They’re super soft and as you can see, hold these colors beautifully. So try it today or pin it for later!
I thought the tutorial was very informative but here where the SVG and Infusible Ink Cricut Grey Shirt are and here in the replies, the print is barely visible and very small. So if I have made a mistake in this message it is because I can barely see the print. They need to be darker and BOLD with maybe a little larger print.. the tutorial was very easy to understand. Also if you could make it to where you can definitely see where the patterns are for each svg more visible, that would be wonderful.
