Yippee! It worked!! At a scrapbooking retreat I spotted Silhouette Flocked HTV and just had to buy it to make my littlest an Elmo shirt. He's a pretty big deal in our house. I was more than a little nervous to use this in my E2 since it's SO thick, but it worked perfectly! [img]  [/img] A close up~ [img]  [/img] Elmo is cut at 6". I used the regular E2 settings for the vinly kiss cut for Elmo's orange nose. It's regular HTV. Blade 4, Speed 3, Pressure 3, Cut 1 For the red and white I bumped the Pressure to 4 and the blade to 6. I also taped down all sides of the HTV to keep it still and in place while cutting. I had my iron on it's highest setting and used parchment paper as a cover to iron. Thanks to AllisonF for that tip! Now my littlest has a soft, fuzzy Elmo shirt to add to her collection!

Thank you for posting this! I appreciate all the cutting details because I always seem to be messing that up. I would love to make a t-shirt like this for my nephew. He is crazy for Elmo, too! I've been playing around with cutting duct tape sheets but never vinyl or fabric. I want to give it a try!  http://learningcurve2012.blogspot.com
